I went 167 in a carrera gt yesterday.

 

Awesome!! Where was that?? At a track?

 

still got ya beat!

186 mph in a Carrera GT

 

Even crazier!

 

speedo said 207 mph in CGT on I-10 in Palm Springs it was at the top.
200+ in F-40 105 west from 605
196 in Enzo P.C.H. north of Mailbu
200+ Slr I-10 Palm Springs
200+ Sikorsky S-76B Banning Pass Palm Springs
235 Autobahn Bugatti Veryon

 

awesome! how did the veyron act at those speeds? did it feel like you could have pushed it a little farther still?

 

you win

 

Very stable. A wonderful car. and Yes It coud have gone faster, but I couldnt

 

yea but im what 5 years younger then you?

 

Nope, highway.

 

and?

 

I got my ride at a younger age, i think i win there.

 

Not much here, but:
driving, 80 in my Jeep Cherokee, 100 in my mom's Acura RSX
passenger, 150 in my mom's old Lancer Evolution, 145 in my brother's E36 M3

On my dirtbike (YZ426F), about 85 across a dry lake bed

 

I would rather have a ride at 186 at 17, then a ride at 167 at 14 or whatever you are. Thanks for playing. We have some wonderful parting gifts.

 

When do i get my gift? And fine you win.

 

That clearly takes the cake. You win in my book.

 

I'd say the guy who DROVE an F-14 Tomcat at Mach 1+ wins.

But, I'll never top that experience myself. That day alone was worth the 3 years in the Navy.

Oh and btw, my ride was in the rain.

 

I'm sorry, but whoever the driver was had bad judgement. It is one thing to drive high speeds, but in the rain is completely different.

 

It was very light rain, and the driver was very safe. Although it is impossible for you to be able to find out. It was also on a closed area of road. It wasnt sudden and violent acceleration either. It was gradual but still showing the cars power. He saved showing me acceleration for when it was dry later on.

 

Agreed.

Plus, Noah, we have a new addition to b-mak's ignore list. F-chat is much more pleasant without the rugrats. You should try it!
