I've been a 145 MPH in my car once and slowed down because i was gaining on traffic, could of gone further but I couldn't in the area. Coming back from the 1st Branson meet between Joplin and Tulsa I cruised my car 140 mph for 10 miles or so to catch up to my convoy (got stuck at a toll with no pikepass). Minimal traffic after getting past the toll. Stupid I know, i'd never do it again, I was feeling risky and 90 MPH wasn't enough, Car cruised well and smooth at that speed and didn't break a sweat. If I would of been cought it would of been my ass. It was obviously before the 3.29s and 3,000 stall.

My buddy and I went a 160 MPH in a 1972 Road Runner with a decently modded 400 BB when he was running 3.23 gears. Imagine original 30 year old suspension, and a rattle trap at that speed! Scary as hell but fun too! Glad I got to experiance it, although i'd never be around to do it again. That was when I was 16-17 yrs old.

I think Chris (Toofastgs) took his GTP up to 170 mph one time years ago. I can't remember though. Hope he chimes in. He's the fastest I heard actully tached out He had a cool speedo/tach video too going to 160 mph when he was headed and cammed. Wonder if he still has that, I need to contact him...
