90mph, but youd be stupid to try to go any faster on I-85 here in SC, its one of the top five most dangerous hwy's in america. I'll take it to a track and push it faster.

109 mph on the way to the Chevy Super Show in Commerece Ga. NE of Atlanta. No bears or traffic in sight either way. It had plenty left and I could have buried it to the max if I thought I wanted to :yesnod:
I dont do this often and it really smarter to do it at the track but once and a while-------- :D

in my 93 SALEEN SC 93-0021 i got to 187MPH!!!! then i slowed down saw cars ahead and at that speed its too hard to judge the space between the cars.. in my corvette the guy who owned it before me said 150MPH but i got it to 115mph i dont see how he got 150mph out of it...

136 then I chickened out. I had miles of straight road ahead of me. I have had it to 130-couple three times and I always start to get a bit sketched. It's definitely got more in it, the numbers are still going up pretty fast. Maybe after the Poly bushing kit, lower kit, and a good alignment I may take it faster.

Re: what is the fastest (BobMachus)
I hit 153 in my 1994 Trans Am with just exhaust and 3:42 gears. It still had some left...i ran out of road.
On my Suzuki Gsxr 750 i tagged 180...that was cool..i bet it only took 15 or 16 seconds to do it..
i havnt rapped the vette out yet

Re: what is the fastest (93vetteguy)
I've taken both of my cars over 140. While the 'Vette doesn't pull as fast, but it sure is a lot smoother.
I was racing/annihilating a brand new Mustang Cobra when I pulled the Admiral up that high. Bone stock!
I was being annihilated by a highly modified '94 TT Supra when I pulled my Z up that high. He went from 0-160 in what it took me to go from 0-140. My Z is naturally aspirated and has stock displacement though. I did beat him to 90 though.

Re: what is the fastest (ZBRA)
172 MPH in my 99 Corvette Hard Top on I 81 in Northeast PA. The GS I always have the top down so I haven't had it over 125 MPH!! Don't want to screw up at that speed and fly out of the car like a missile. :chevy

Re: what is the fastest (Gordon Vibbert)
My son said he saw 138mph while I was putting some distance between us and a Rustang! :D Anything over 100mph and I'm not paying attention to the speedo. I keep my eyes on the road since I don't have HUD!
