208 in my heavily modded Camaro on a circle track.

In my Corvette? About 175 with the roof off on the highway. Just because.

But now the zero to 270 mph in 3.0 seconds -- you shoulda been there!

Enjoyed watching/cheering on your career. Glad the boats didn't put you out of business. Thanks for the memories.

That was smart! Makes it much easier to identify the body.....

160 on my Daytona 955i on highway 104 headed from Tucumcari to Las Vegas New Mexico. The 160 was on the GPS, the speedo was reading about 177. That was all it had and it was bumping off the rev limiter. I was in full gear.... makes it even easier to identify the body.... You can't fix stupid

My 900RR topped out around 170 and that was with every mod I could throw at it. It’s still in storage at my lake house. Maybe this spring I’ll get it legal again.

Default No mods but a modern Pioneer radio.

No mods. In Drive. No time to be distracted.
