150mph is no accident, idc how smooth the ride is.. too bad you didn't get pulled over.
Texting and eating a hamburger while driving 150 - wonder if he was born with an extra hand to make up for a lack of brains?

Count towards the fastest speed you've done? I would think so

I have only gone @ 105-107 in the Z & that was @ firebird raceway. There are not many places here where you can open up the car a little

There isn't an exact speed in my opinion where it just turns into a new "ballgame" its just a category of speed... For example, 130 mph in a straight line would be considered fast, and very controllable; add slight curves into the road and you have a different "ballgame" A personal example on a bike, 140 is fast, 150 is getting serious, 160 your never going to make a turn if anything comes out in front of you, 170 your heart is beating and ***** are growing, 180 you just **** yourself, 190 and beyond is just ludicrous speed. I hit 192 on the speedo of my R1, I had altered sprockets, etc.. so the error was right around 4% to 4.2% so my actual speed was probably 183-185 and I can tell you everything was a blur, my helmet was starting to rise, you had no concept of distance, and I was scared shitless.

Just my .02

Did you take into consideration of the amount it is already off from the factory?

My 02 gsx-r750 is 10% off with stock sprockets. With my old "accel" sprockets(1 down 2 up) I was about to 20% off.

They recalculated it roughly. The bike was set up all for drag.

Drove a nascar at Texas Speedway 10 laps, think they have em about 150, what a blast. Had my 74 280z at 135 it was maxed out, bout a 5 mile run. a 73 Transam 455 bout the same as the z. My current ZR only 115 so far chasing a crotch rocket.

02 GSX-1300R - about 170ish, but the speedo was a bit of a blur

05 Pontiac GTO - 172mph on the backstretch at Talledega. Felt smooth as silk with another gear to go.
