I got my 95 Z up to 110mph before sadly getting pulled over. The cop drove up next to me not behind me , gave me some insulting words of advice("F#$#ing insane") then drove off. since then the fastest iv gotten was 98mph against a 240 sx.

I hit my revv limiter at about 122 (my speedo was 4mph slow with my old tires) so I was about 126 on the limiter. It got there pretty good for a V6.

I had my Wife's car over 130 easy but had to stop quick... I do mean quick... Her rotors are now purple... Guess it is time for new ones.

The fastest I know I was driving was 132 in a 88 Buick LeSabre T-type (see pic). The speedo in that stops at 85, but the cop's radar told me my speed. I didnt get a ticket... He gave me an escort to my exit (bout a 1/4 mile away) and even blocked traffic so I could exit without stopping (you had to cross oncomming traffic) It was about 11:30 at night and I was sick, I just wanted to get off the freeway before losing more of my poisoned fish dinner. After I handed him my reg and stuff I opened the door to do my thing and he slammed it shut and told me to sit there. Well he stepped forward when he closed my door and I puked on him. It was nasty chunky fishy smelling stuff too. When he walked back to his car he was shaking the stuff off his legs.

Here is the car I was driving

GPS read 141mph in my 3.4L driving through S. Carolina back to FL (pulled over by Charger, Viper radar detector worked fine...but the cop was using the on-and-off method with his radar gun. Varified speed, no ticket, spare details due to long post).

Now on 5 cylinders, getting up to 110mph makes me think that I'm gonna shoot the dead cylinder through my hood (so I don't even touch 100 anymore).

Forgot to mention in my thread that I only running on 5 now...

Still truckin' along though. Gotta' love Chevy's.
