Simple Poll - have you ever gone over 122 mph

And that's no joke!

But the real question is, did you do it with your coon-skin hat on? LOL!!!!

 

done 135 several times on a rural Virginia road...

122 is just getting warmed up...

 

Haha this is too funny, that's the exact top speed I have driven! Last year, Autobahn derestricted road, BMW 525 Touring E60 rental. It wouldn't pull more, could get it higher but ran out of patience.

 

I have, 240kmh in the Civic I used to have.

 

250 ks in the Porsche 993 RS touring and about 230 in the Boxer.

 

My car won't do 122 Had I the chance/possibility - yes, I would.

 

Max 170 mph as the driver and 196 mph as a passenger.

I don't think anyone should automatically lose their license for 122 mph unless they were in a school zone. On the open highway that is just beginning to stretch your legs.

140 mph on the highway and 160mph lap average at Atlanta Motor Speedway in a stock car.

 

Fastest for me is 175km/h on the road (110mph) and 165km/h on the track (103mph). My car is only geared to about 205km/h (126mph) and over 100mph it really starts to struggle to accelerate. I could beat it if I really really wanted to but I don't really. I will wait until I have a car fast enough to pull it quickly.

 

Around 198mph in a VW R32 HPA Stage 3 with 600HP.

 

and with one eye closed. ->

 

Come on... 122 is not a big deal, I do that on my Fiat.

 

im too young and still live under my parents insurance and drive their cars,
driven around 115
riden 140-150 on track

o yeah driving laws stink, and so do the roads espically in crowded areas and where radar dectector are illegal.
cant move yet but am looking foreward to the day

 

All in a little old Datsun 510 GT4 race car:
• On the front straight at Lime Rock
• On the front straight at Summit Point
• On the back straight at Road Atlanta
• On the back straight at Mid Ohio
• Coming off the banking at Pocono
• Coming down the hill at Sears Point
• Front straight at Seattle
• Front and back straights at Portland



• Front straight at Seattle in our 250

 

As the driver:
120 in a 928
140 in a Dinan M5

As a passenger:
150 in an Enzo
140 in a 550 Barchetta

 

I can't tell you cause I don't remember, but I think that old TBird was movin at least that speed when Thelma took to screamin in my ear, "ya think we missed the turn ?"....

Over 120 mph in my fiat 124 at 16 on the freeway, going downhill of course, and the car was shaking like a bed in a cheap motel with a few quarters in it. But in the Ferrari its different, its possible to sleep right through it all.

 

The family car when I learned to drive (yes, there were cars in 1976) was a '74 Carrera. 150 mph indicated
First car was a '68 BMW 2002. 120 mph indicated

Next time I had a car capable of 120+ was my 1988 Golf GTI 16V. 133 mph calculated from tach and gearing charts.
Now I drive a Corrado. 130 mph indicated, but still pulling. Roads are just too crowded here now for top-speed runs.

On track: whatever 7000 rpm in 5th in a 550 works out to...pit straight at the Dubai Autodrome

 

how much is 122 in Km/h? i've done 190km/h-200km/h. in a proper car, i normally cruise at 170 km/h on highways

 

Frequently! <grin>

Yes!!

All the time.

Followed by an amazing amount of guilt!!

 

250kph on Autobahn 81 towards near Singen on way to Zurich, 2007 BMW Z4 Coupe 3.0si. That was just this summer. Legally in an unlimited zone of course. You can actually get somewhere during those times.

 

On the track: 257.43 MPH while on a licensing run in an A/Fuel dragster at Englishtown. If I can find my timing slip, I will scan and post.

I don't exceed posted speeding limits on public roads...

 

Probably. But racecars don't have speedos.

 

Just over 196km/h.
