Zedrush Posted July 4, 2007 Author Share Posted July 4, 2007 Here is video evidence of me hitting the 155 mph limit looks more like 35mph must be the colour of the car makes it look slower Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam@Z1auto.com Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 166 mph on the way back from a track day according to the speedo...It was 100 rpm shy of the rev limiter (7200) in 6th, though I have a 3.9 final drive in my car. Funny story actually - was with a few friends driving back from a day at the track. Me in my Z, a good friend in his supercharged Corrado VR6, another in a Gokf R32 and finally one other friend in his Jetta 1.8T (K04, etc). We begin inching up and up in speed, then slowing back down as traffic builds. We then see some lights behind us..and all of us slow down to a coast of around 80 mph. The car turns out to be a black Crown Victoria, which here in the states is usually driven by detectives, FBI, etc. He pulls next to me, beeps, motions be to keep the speed down (just motioning his hands downward) and takes off I thought for sure we were in for it, and we immediately all called each other to say how scared we all were. That was the fastest I've ever gone on road, and in retrospect, as fun as it was, I never will go that fast again...my heard literally sunk into my stomach when I saw the lights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good story and nice to see a nice telling off, rather than points/fines/ban etc! So seeing as your limits are normally lower than ours, what was the limits on the roads you were doing your 166mph on! ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MickJ Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 My M3 never did 160 with me in it and my GSXR 1100M allegedly went to 150 when I turned round to talk to the wife, so she said! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TiN Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Biggest number that I didn't see on my CBR speedo was 169mph...but it was downgeared, so in reality, it was only 70mph (not x2-ish). I also haven't managed to get from Reading to Bristol in 30 minutes... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H5 Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Reading to Bristol in 30mins how didnt you manage that? Not at 3am in the morning, and not on a Honda Fireblade... And not 3 inches shorter when you got there by not breaking the time continuum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
