185 in my friend Automatic Supra on Stock turbo's on the way to Vegas at about 2am. Was pretty crazy and scarry not sure if I'd do that again on a public road. Way too many variables. You guys wanna do top speed el mirage is the place to go tho your car will never be the same after that . Talk about filling the under carriadge with dirt and clay. | ||

Bart...that's not the case at all! haha... There were some problems in the past where some excessive speeding was discussed ... not a big deal - but that was the context of the disclaimer. Kind of a big inside joke for a number of the So Cal Fchatters ;) | ||

Is everyone so paranoid about making a claim as to the speed one has done?. Do you think the CHP will try to ticketed you for making a claim on the Internet? What, do I live in peace loving Europe? | ||

Of course I noticed that! Bart - you REALLY like going fast, eh? haha.. are you coming to the FDC Launch Party on 7/12? (We are doing an overnight run to Vegas afterwards... it should be a blast) | ||

Good call, Wayne! I didn't have the "exact" wording handy... I knew you would come through though! | ||

Oh boy. Let me go ahead and interject this now: DISCLAIMER: None of the speeds quoted in this thread were acheived on public roadways and DEFINITELY not while participating in any FCA, FOC, or FDC sponsored events! | ||

I was just wondering how fast each of us have gone in their car. Me, I hit 150 mph going to Las Vegas last summer. That is the fastest I have ever gone in a car. What is your top speed? |
