    The fastest I have been is 70 MPH (in Michigan where it is the speed limit) - I am telling on all you guys :)

    Ok maybe 155 in AZ in a 911.. My F-car 140 - top down pretty windy - so that is about it - don't want to mess up what little hair I have left...

    I hit 110 - 115mph once in my G500. The box obviously wasn't meant to be driven at that speed. It's always very nerve-racking driving at speed in the US. It's nice to drive in Germany at a sustained 300 km/h and not have to worry about being arrested.

    148 in the Ferrari.
    155 in the Porsche.
    135 in the NSX. Driving fast is hella crazy in the X (for some reason you just feel it more).
