I was at 195 but passenger side in an Enzo.

 

I'm jealous...

 

I don't have driving pics but we had our top speed run on the way back from the track that day.

 

Awesome! Now I'm really jealous haha! I've only ever seen one on the streets and that was in Huntington Beach last time we were out there... sounded sooooo beautiful!

 

Got the Z up to 150mph. Got dads Z06 up to 181(did not feel that I should go any faster as the front end felt like it was starting to come off the ground. Both of these runs where done a private air strip

 

1 million miles per hour

 

+1

 

Pegged 1968 camaro at 120, felt great. Question ? dont most cars only have 120 limits?
Have a radar gun handy ?

 

1. Bullcrap. No civilians are breaking the sound barrier legally number one. I don't think that "collector" would risk losing his MIG over something like that.

2. Military jets aren't even allowed to break the sound barrier over the continental US without a reason.

3. The MIG-21 would have a really hard time getting anywhere MACH 2...which BTW is NOT 1500mph. More like 1300mph. If it did, it would have to be very near SL...it would have trouble breaking 1.5 at altitude.

Quit BSing people...

 

WANTED MORE RAN OUT OF ROAD!!!!

 

Agree full, however, a small correction about the speed of zone...

It is not a fixed number. The speed of sound varies with the altitude the aircraft is at.

 

I did it in my Z.

 

I was quoting the listed max speed on the A/C....I'm aware that the speed of sound varies...it also varies with weather conditions...

 

Ok since everyone is bragging now. I have gone over 17500mph to get a craft into orbit. So can anyone top that???

 

159mph

 

140 in a '94 honda accord auto (the speed governor kicked in and I thought the tranny was going lol). scary.

120 or so in my '04 G. Felt smooth as satin, but ever really tried to push it though.

 

How many of these were GPS confirmed? If you're looking at you're Speedo...you really weren't going as fast as it said at these higher quoted speeds. It becomes less accurate b/t 5-10 mph over 140mph.

155 (open road) in my Z and 168 in a C6 convertible (Salt Flats). Both were GPS confirmed.

 

I've done infiniti miles per hour before!

 

this thread is pretty worthless and deserves to die IMO. I have gone 152 in one of my 07Z's, and 139 on a 04 Jaguar XJ. Back then i was more stupid and naive than i am today. Speeding tickets are worthless, if you are stupid as I am (moreso was back then) then you will speed. I dont think I learned my lesson by those speeding tickets, it just hit me that i have lost many friends in car accidents and it is very dangerous to do risky thinks like that on public roads. Going on a track is a somewhat different story, its a controlled environment where you dont put other innocent people in danger...

I dont know what it is in people, but everyone wants to go fast - Adrenaline. Its just different to have a thread where people can boast about it. Its dangerous and I thank God he looked out for me when I acted irresponsiblly and stupidly. Life is a priviledge, you shouldnt try to endager it. AND THAT DOESNT MEAN, DONT HAVE FUN. It just means have fun responsibly.

 

I've done 140 in my old S2000. Hit 155 in a friends 03' Cobra. Both were scary. The top was up in the S2K and was noisy as hell. I thought it was going to come flying off. The Cobra just didn't feel safe.

I've also traveled through copper wire at a constant speed of 186,000 miles per second. It was fun.
