what is the fastest that you have gone in your 308?

145 and still have room for more

 

160 a couple of times, many years ago in my first '77 GTB. Just over redline in 5th. Took about 3 miles to get there. Level ground, cool Florida mornings both times (yeah, I know "cool Florida" sounds like an oxymoron)

 

Only timed run ended at 132.xxxMPH at the Texas Mile, with tools, spare and Mardi Gras beads on board.........the wasn't top speed certainly.

 

This is with 4 adults in the car. On a track, of course.

72 MPH but I was caught up with the flow of traffic otherwise I would have stayed in the speed limit.

 

120 on track.

Lots left.

Your car will be faster w/out a ski rack just so you know.

 

328 - 145 indicated out in the AZ desert for about 10 miles, but who knows how fast we were really going? I was afraid to go faster for fear of the law. Yeah, I know, doesn't make any sense but somehow 145 or thereabouts seemed easier to explain than 150+ Hey, I was younger then...it was almost two years ago.

 

187.4 mph (GPS indicated). Oh wait, that was a different car. I did almost 90mph in my 308 the other day.....

OH! Tex you're such a showman!!!!

 

100 indicated, fast enough. I've only recently regained 3 years without a ticket.

 

Ask Dave to do a thorough inspection of your suspension. If you're planning high speeds you want the car to be predictable. All the rubber bits are very old on these cars.

 

Mike, did you have Sammy Hagars song playing at the time??

 

135 in my mondial t..... And I learned when you get stopped, and the cop asks you if you know why he has you pulled over. "Because I let you" isn't the right answer.

 

135 indicated so I guess that's about 125 actual

 

Or, if the cop says "oh I've been waiting for driver like you" you say, I tried to get here as fast as I could

 

. . . all the rubber bits should have been replaced by now!

 

Just don't do it in Virginia.

at 140 I wouldn't trust "should" that is why I suggested he have the shop give it a good look over.

 

Aint Oxygen great?!

Not sure we could get those speeds if it were pushed off a 14K ft mountain here! Surely not with the non flammable rabbit pee we have for fuel now!

 

75, is that good?

 

160 is as high as I have been........................................in km that is. Slightly over 100 mph. Anything more and the car feels like its going to take off. Probably time to renew the suspension.

 

5 mph. Delivered off the truck in the rain and immediately ushered into the bay. Dried and covered.

But today, well we will see...

 

Ever wonder why all the Ricers blow by you when your speedo says 85? Including Grandpa's old '67 Continental? Why your car is doing 10mph while parked?

Always remember - What the Ferrari Speedo says aint what the Lidar unit says. I also dont trust the GPS - better, but still off.

 

Fastest I have ever been in my 308?

The SPEED LIMIT.





But on the German Autobahns ....... I Don't HAVE ONE.
