Ill agree with both you guys. Driving that fast is just stupid considering how many times i have been pulled over for speeding its really not worth it...I would like to get into legal drags but the problem is here all of our tracks are 1/8miles. I mean yes i have driven that fast before but its pretty risky...

Fastest I've personally gone is 165 in a BMW 540i (driving) and I sat shot gun in an Evo 8 going 185

Cold air intake, blow off valve, NGK iridium spark plugs, MSD 8.8 mm spark plug wires and that's really it. Besides a turbo timer. Nothing to really add THAT much power. Stock turbo. We ran out of free freeway, we still had some RPM's to burn. It was a little scary, not going to lie. Every thing was a blur. An adrenaline rush!

you think 120 is wreckless, well the guy 185 is luck he didnt get a flat or something, but i was on an open 3 lane road at 2 am, Forsure no cops around in that area.
