Have YOU hit 155 MPH+ ??!
I hit 156 MPH the other day on an empty highway at around 3:00 AM. It was fun! Just wondering how many other people have hit 155+ MPH

I hit 120+ racing a supercharged Mustang GT on an abandoned road. The fairlady still felt like it had plenty of room to improve on that

I hit an indicated 148mph at Watkins Glen. Fastest I've taken it on public roads was a brief run up to 100mph on a wide-open deserted two lane. I had the V1 volume to max. I don't know how you guys routinely hit high triple digits in this country on public roads. The fear of losing my license keeps me back. Besides, it's more fun on the track.

LOL N74DV, you got 1 huge thumb
I hit 154 and my passanger got it on video, I was still accelerating but I had to back off because I seen a few cars in the distance and who knows if one was a cop, also I wouldn't wanna hit the brakes at that speed, I would rather glide back to normal speeds. I hit 150 and 152 on a few other occasions before letting off for similar reasons or my passanger freaking out..

152 according to the digital speedo. Racing an Acura NSX, one of the best rushes of my life.
