Topic: What's the fastest you've ever driven?

Anonymous A started this discussion 14 years ago #20,619

The fastest I've driven is about 130MPH, I like driving fast but after I reach about 90 the engine is screaming with crazy RPM and I'm afraid to overheat it or something. It grinds my gears when some idiot in a 13-year-old Subaru is telling me about how he reached >200, bitches don't realize you need 200MPH rated components for those speeds, and a car capable of it.

130-140 in a car (my own, fuck riding with people driving crazy like that). And around 160 on a motorcycle, it kinda scared the shit out of me.

You live in SoCal. That's like cruising speed here, when the freeways are clear.

120mph in the UP, which is way, way higher than its obnoxious, needless speed limit of 55mph.
I usually drive about 100 up there, but I peaked at 120mph and had to not do that as my car's shitty engine would probably break.

Here's a question for all you 100mph+ people... Was it flat ground, going downhill or up? I hit my Saturn at 124 or 127, don't remember what the speed limiter was at, but it was a bitch getting up to that speed. Helped that I was going downhill though. In my Jeep only up to 100. In my uncle's BMW we got up to a little over 130. In my old boss's Mercedes, that shit easily went up to 160.

About 100-110 on the motorway.

I got my old Saturn up to somewhere around 120-130 on the 405 trying to beat my friend down to Dana Point. There's probably a slight downhill grade around the El Toro "Y", but that little car could pull off similar speeds on the more-or-less flat areas of the 10.

The 405? No traffic?

@333,155 (F)
It was kind of a buzzkill to me after reaching 90-95 because the acceleration just got so slow, still fun nonetheless though.

@333,156 (Falco !PZmcClOUDk)
Thought this too. @previous (F) explains it all.
