6.7062e+8 mph in the Millennium Falcon. That's the speed of light.


Naw seriously, only 108. Atleast that's what the cop gave the ticket for.

165 in a formula one car at charlotte motor speedway. think going 160 in a straight line is scary... try doing around a 45' turn... super fun though.

Wasn't driving, but my dad had his BMW M3 up to 163 with me riding shotgun. Only about 95 in the Z....I know i know. I couldnt afford the insurance if I got pulled over!

You guys with bikes- I'm not sure if you're stupid, lying, or I'm a ****. Maybe all of the above. I'm also willing to bet your speedo was off by about 15mph at that speed. Got an SV650 to 120 and got a GSXR 1000 to 135mph (speed corrected)...and I was only in 5th gear. Never again would I ride a bike that fast, too many variables to worry about.

Most of us are plain stupid. The thrill is like none other. Now, doing those kinds of speeds on the streets are dumb. The best way to do top speed runs are at sanctioned events.. But it is a thrill all in it's own.

Not to speak for everyone, but mine was just pure stupidity and being an adrenaline junky. Other than skydiving and flying, I'm never able to get that same rush.

1996 chevy lumina around 100mph
1999 suzuki Bandit 1200s 148mph(motorcycle speedo)
21'ft drag boat with a Chevy big block whipple s/c putting out 1100hp 117mpg gps
2003 350z 118mph on the track at Watkins Glen!!!
1995 geo metro 3 cylinder 75mph with four people yikes!!!
I fly jets for work. Legacy 600 up to 638kts with a tailwind on descent into NYC!

I believe once you make it to 160mph on a motorcycle it's approximately 1hp per mph to go over 160. So most of the bike claims on speed unless GPS verified are bloated.

After doing my first drivers school for racing, I would say real drivers aren't worried about their top speed but their performance in complete car control. most people have no idea what their limit is until it's passed. Just my 2 cents!!!

110 on a boat? I'd die hahaha. But it sounds fun

And only 118 @ WGI?
My friend races miatas and they reach 120 just before the chicane
I can't imagine the 350 can't do better

I actually left out that I hit 120 in my old Maxima. Yeah I'm all for taking some risks. I love riding fast just as much as anybody else- but until you see a buddy hit a guard rail at 100mph or you personally pinned under your own bike sliding at 70mph...I figured that my life wasn't worth the thrill. That said, I'm sure the Z will see a higher speed (and a track) in the near future.

I know all the risks to high speed crashes. My last crash was 2 years ago on mothers day. I HIT the pavement at 148mph. That was a long 4 month recovery time. And not to mention, I am still healing.

It probably can, it was my first time tracking the car so I was getting faster on each run I was on it. My stock clutch died doing about 115mph going into the chicane. That was fun!!
The boat was insane!
