You are nuts (estas loco mijo).

Where did you do this in P.R.?

 

The scary part (other than the face he took a pic while doing 156) is that he still had a good 1000RPMs before redline.

 

Its no my Pic, but I done it before, is from AvalonRacing Gallery!

 

Those are my pics I took them. We took them on the way back from Las Vegas on saturday afternoon. I already posted a thread on it. It was fun and very solid at top speed.

 

I hope the road was clear!

 

I did 123 one time. So easy to do. And I wonder how high the digital speedo will go. But of coarse it will go more than 160, right?

 

hey Moab...

what is that light next to the digital speedo??

 

It may just be my imagination, but does the windshield look wet to you?

Was it actually raining while you were playing in the upper triple digits?

Please! Say it ain't so!

 

Just looks dirty to me. Dont ask for a pic of my car right now, i would be shot down by all you Zaino guys! I washed her sunday, and it snowed last night, now my car looks like i had toothpaste sprayed all over it at high speed. Totally need to spray it down tomorrow after work if it doesnt snow again tonight.

 

errr good question, its just sorta there... on certain screens like tire pressure you can scroll through it(front and back), and a little arrow does something there, and points to the side... yeah....

so was that the worst explanation ever? I think so.

 

wow! what is it about road trips to Vegas...

I did 152 in mine back in October on my way to Vegas...

gotta love the AZ/Nevada highways! Most of you folks just don;t understand how easy and safe it is to drive triple digits in the desert.

 

I was wondering about the amount of road and/or wind noise you experienced when going that fast. I have been up to 112 on a long curve and I couldn't tell the difference between 112 and 80. Something that I kind of consider a problem. I was just tooling around, look down and I'm doing 92. My first mod to the Z was a Radar Detector.

 

road noise was a bit louder than I thought it would be at 152, but wind noise was pretty low.

The Z can benefit greatly from a couple square yards of Dynamat... eventually I plan to do just that to quiet my Z down.

 

On the Beltway, I was accidently (honestly) moving at about 145 mph and the sound was so quite, and the car so well-behaved, that until I looked at the speedo, I would have guessed I was doing about 100 mph.

This is not a good car to drive by "the seat of your pants."
The feel can be deceptive.

I'm always shocked when I look down and see my actual speed (especially when my radar detector is screaming).

Gotta love those Brembo's.

 

me too!

i hit 100 so often and i am thinking I am only doing 70.

I had it to 130 and it seemed like 90 at the most.

MAN, I LOVE THIS FREAKING CAR!!!!!!!

 

Taken mine to 140+. To much adrenaline was going to get an exact number. The stretch of freeway was at that time of night close to empty with the two left lanes empty for at least a mile, it was dry, but still an almost surreal experiance. It was a rush and a half.

How come moab355 is doing 156 at 5700 rpm and N74DV 152 at 5900?
Are we looking at automatic vs. manual gearing differences?

most likely...

mine's an auto and I was slightly accelerating when I snapped the shot... hence my higher RPM's
