have you ever gone over 100mph (160kmph)? I did once in North Carolina, but i felt like I was floating so I noped out and slowed down. How do you guys put up with it?
Yeah highest I've gotten is 145, speedo said 15 but I know it's off a little
>>28735488150, accidentally lost an order of magnitude
>>28735493:/ hate spedos mine also reads fast, i thought i was ripping at 115 for a long stretch. Checked the GPS later and i peaked at 101…
>>28735463Imagine not topping out every car you've owned. Couldn't be me.
I did 100mph and dropped down for the same reason. If you’re not doing it on a track, something as little as a pothole is going to throw you off violently and kill you. Need some good asphalt to do these speeds.
>>28735520All you actually need is decent tires and front+rear downforce. If you haven't, add an undertray and you'll be 3/4 of the way there
>>28735463when i was in college i hit 110 mph going down hill in my gay little 2004 audi a4. it was on a rural back road and i realized that i could have died from any number of factors (deer, potholes, blowing a tire, whatever) so i never did it again.
100mph isn't much to write home about. I try and get to 100mph as often as possible because it's a nice round number challenge. I find things get spicy above 120.
>>28735463I've done it in every rig I've owned. My first car would only do 112 with the moon roof open and 120 with it closed. My wagon I got up to 112 on the highway passing a couple miles worth of cars stuck behind a prius in the passing lane. My truck I got up to 100 on a back road and that was more than enough, felt very floaty.
>>28735463155mph on 19th Ave and Vicente in SF after a cop car shined a spotlight on me while I was doing a wheelie. Got a Fastest was 175mph. I even had a passenger on the back!
>>28735514I'm not going out of my way to reach 189MPH
I did 110mph in a 2001 toyota fuckin yarisDidnt hold it for long as it felt a little too light like if i ran over something as big as an ant the car would roll.
>>28735463I've gone 155 mph, could gone way faster if it weren't for the factory limiter.Fortunately a custom dyno tune that I just ordered should fix that and potentially get a few extra HP/TQ as well
>>28735595>Got aGot a what??? Got a ticket? Got away? Please help anon
Motorcycle: 178Car: 185It's overrated imho, a thrill at first but the novelty will wear off. It's much more satisfying going quick down a mountain than it is to go fast in a straight line.
>>28735463100mph on land is fuck all. Try 120+ in 7 seconds down the 1/4 mile. Even that seems slow after a few passes…
>>28735619On the water any reasonable speed feels fast. 10 knots is considered "flying".
>>28735463Yeah, years ago I was at a cottage with 2 buddies and we were out of cigarettes. I was the least drunk so I ripped my E90 to 160kmph down country rounds to the nearest gas station while my friends shit their pantsLooking back it was pretty fucking stupid, I was "ok" to drive but definitely shouldn't have taken it to 160. Car felt fairly solid at 160 though I gotta say
>>28735463Yeah, plenty of times. If the traffic allows, that's my highway cruising speed. At around 180 the wind noise starts getting annoying and the fuel usage goes up significantly.
>>28735463speedo said 190 kmh but car is supposed to go only 160 so no idea what the real speed was but i was going WOT for a whiledid this in a over 30 year old volvo 240 with b200k + m45
>>28735463100mph in a modern sedan is a mellow experience, assuming the highway allows you to do so relatively safely. 100mph on a big bore dirt bike with no wind protection and a thin 21" 50/50 frony tire was far, far less so, and I don't recommend it.
>>28735667No balls in this one.
>>28735463It's extremely car dependent, I've noped out at 100mph in various rentals that clearly couldn't handle more, though rarely before that. Fastest I've managed is 150mph in an M3P before I ran out of open road, coupled with my confidence in the car steadily decreasing beyond 130 mph.
>>28735463Yes? Often when on the highwayMy god wtf?Assuming most posters in here are Americans with their big 3-4L V6s and V8s, do you guys even drive your cars?I almost redline on 6th on my shitbox BMW 316 when Im going downhill. My average speed on the highway is 150kmph(in GTA)
>>28735681There are bold pilots and old pilots, but very few old and bold pilots.
I always feel the need to check if my new car is able to obtain declared max speed. Once I do so, I never exceed 130kmph again. Higher speed is just annoying, it's significantly louder, less efficient and you aren't even much faster overall due to traffic.
>>28735463>>28735520i've barely hit 130mph (210 kph) on a back road in my 89 cressida but ran out of road to go any faster. the car was just slowly bouncing up and down very consistently, was pretty interesting. and considering how bumpy the road was, it was pretty damn smooth. i imagine if i slapped a gopro at the wheels you'd see them shaking harder than michael j fox
>>28735463If your car has good suspension its not that bad
>>28735463My speedometer only goes up to 85, so I dunno.
>>28735463Yeah, in a 1998 ford explorer (stupid, dont do this) and a few-years-old equinox (boring but safer).Tried doing it in my LTD crown vic once to show off my fancy new 140mph speedo but I only made it to 99 before I ran out of straight road :(And the only way my conversion van is ever gonna do 100 is if I drive it off a cliff, HOO!
I went 147 on a bike and 120 in an accord a long time ago.But now a days I only go 1-9mph over the limit so I stay in the 2 point range which is the threshold where cops probably won't bother to pull you over, if you do get pulled over it's probably just a warning, and it doesn't fuck you up too bad if you get stuck with a ticket (not that I have any points on my licence)
>>28735463145mph in the rich friend’s Benz on the Kennedy in Chicago. Them German cars do 120mph-150mph so smooth, I’ll give em that. Also doing 120mph+ weaving in and out of moderate traffic at night on a busy highway in a sports sedan is fun.I had a lame ass 2-door Cavalier years and years ago that had a mini spoiler and some sporty looking wheels and body package from the factory and when I got that up to 110mph, the wiper blades started lifting off the windshield… one of many reasons I will never own a Chevy again.Got my current mini truck a few months ago, was doing 95 on 95 in Miami a couple weeks back to see how she handles. But it doesn’t really seem fun to push that thing and also I’m too old to get arrested for doing 120mph and have to deal with the consequences and all the lectures about how CDL holders should be the standard of safety blah blah that dumb talk cops always give when they see you have a CDL.
>>28735463Highest was 150mph
>>28735838CDL is either a get out of jail free card or an absolute ass reaming in my experience
>>28735463i did 130 mph or something i maxed out a skoda octavia on the autobahn
>>28735619Wait are niggas really doing 7 second quarters on water?
>>28735608>custom dyno tune>few extra HPwhy go whole hog like this without building the car at all? surely there are simple, cheaper plug n play tunes for this use case
>>28735725Theres a time and a place for everything, you just gotta know when there's minimal turbulence, ball-less one. 100 mph is nothing. I agree don't be reckless but cmon bro, really? 100? That's your stopping point?
>>28735859>that colorThat’s a dangerous car to speed in. BOLO for lime green whatever and they’re going to spot you.>>28735869Whichever way it goes, it always comes with a fucking speech from the cops like “We hold you to a higher standard!” and you gotta sit there and take it. I got pulled over a few months back for absolutely zero reason other than looking like trouble (cop literally lied about my speed and “pacing me” when he pulled a U-turn and I was already braking and pulling over when he got raced up behind me)and I wanted to ream him out so bad but was searching for jobs and didn’t want to be fighting a bullshit ticket while applying for CDL jobs.
my mom's prius tops out at 115
I start work between 5 and 6am. I regularly go over 150km on the highway. last week a stang wanted to have some fun and I think we cracked 200 before coming up on traffic and we had to slow down
>>28735463That would be illegal where I live so no.
>>28735888Trvke
>>28735887>That's your stopping point?On a air cooled single cylinder engine with 35bhp on the rear wheel? Yes. Maybe one day BMW will bring back the 650gs Dakar, but I wouldn't count on it.
>>28735979>35bhpWhy are you riding a stock 125Why are you on the highway at all with 30hpYou've got some explaining to do
>>28735463Fastest I've gone is 149mph Turn 1 at Pacific raceways.But the Stock car Bros convinced me to stop track days until I get a Full floater axle.They told me pulling 1.4-1.5Gs on slicks was a suicide mission with a C-Clip axle 8.
>>28736001>Stock 125Try a stock 650, unchanged since the 90s though.
>>28735608Anon, make sure to check the rest of the car is rated for a higher speed. Often times the factory will put a limiter to keep things like the drive shaft or CV joints from exploding. Just ask the V6/i4 Mustang guys about how fast a factory drive shaft will go kek.
>>28735879Yeah. Drag boats are sick.
Sadly my bike's top speed is 150 km/h with a tail wind. That was fun though.
You people saying how scary 100mph is or how it's hard to reach... Are you euro or something? How fucking shitty are your vehicles over there if they can't handle 100mph? I've done it plenty of times in old clapped out and loose trucks and SUV's with fucked alignment and suspension and it's still boring and uneventful.
>>28736334wow, mister! can i suck your dick?
>>28736334i've done over 200 miles an hour on a skateboard. beat that!
>>28736334>Are you euro or something?More like Japanese. Most of Europe has a highway speed limit of 120-130 kph, so 75-80 mph and getting to 160kph/100mph from there is not a stretch. Meanwhile Japan still has a 100 kph with very limited sections only recently having 120. Even the Bayshore Line on Shutoko (the longest and widest straight road in Japan) where everyone raced in the 90s, has an 80 kph speed limit.
>>28735463Holy shit no that's illegal and highly dangerous. My car warns me with a loud sound if I go over 70 so I never dared go higher after it happened
i built a shitbox that once did 147mph.
>>28735667What bike was it anon
Went past 155 after my aero mods with 240 wheel in a 3500lb car.
Full of Nigssan Altima users in this thread
>>28736077Speed at the wheels isn't what kills a drivetrain, it's torque (and RPM + boost pressure for the engine)
>>28735881You can't bypass a speed limiter with a simple piggyback system; those just change the MAF, fuel pressure, and boost pressure sensor readings to the ECU
>>28736395He's memeing about the '11-'14 V6 not having weak 2 piece drive shaft and when people removed the 112mph limiter they found out why it was there the hard way.
>>28736402Sounds like a base model issue
>>28735463HAHAHAHAHAAHAHH fucking loser kids. I do 100mph on my bike on the 1 mile sprint from my house to the main road to work. Then I do 80+ in that .5 mile run to the turn in. 15 years ago I was doing 160+ on multiple 600 and 1000cc bikes. 198 mph in long geared 300zx turbos and a couple porsche and lambos.You sensitive weak liberal cucks get worried about 100??!?!?!?!?!?!?!? No wonder you aren't having sex.
>>28735463People in Florida and Texas do 90 mph just going to work.... Pussy.
>>28736435Going over 100 mph in a basic cheap econobox can be rough, since they have little to no downforce and often even create some lift at high speeds.In an actual car, yeah you're a bitch if you haven't gone over 140
>>28735463What's the big hurry? Here at p™ enterprises we keep it ~5 under the posted.Driving under the limit shows everyone that you're not some wage slave loser in a rush all the time
100mph crossing Nevada westbound in a 2010 corolla
>>28735463>>28735520What kind of cars were you guys in that 100mph feels unstable?
126mph in a Cadillac CTS in Adams county WI with my wife and 1 year old daughter and a trunk full of luggage for a thanksgiving road trip. Didnt feel as well planted as I would have liked and was approaching a hill, so I let it brake me. As soon as I crested it, I ran in to a state trooper. Ended up with a $540 fine and 2 week suspension.
I used to go 110 down empty country roads all of the time. It's called not being a pussy.
>>28736369kek
>>28735463Had an old 92 mercury villager up to 117 in my teens. Damn was that scary. Started getting the wabble.
>>28736334Only an ameriqueer would get so worked up by superior engineering
I don't think I am brave enough to drive a Ranger at 100+ mph.
>>28736530I was in a 92 Vette. It’s not that it was unstable, it was sort of floaty but surprisingly smoother than lower speeds. It’s moreso I realized that again, a single pothole was between me making it home or being wrapped about a tree. These are not speeds you do on public roads.
>>28735463i did and i floated as well.. i was on a plane.
>>28735463I drove 150 kph for half an hour or so when I was in a hurry to a vet. Tried to do the same in my other older car for fun but it didn't feel safe as slow as 130 kph so I slowed down.
>>28735463yeah i do 120~ mph up dirt roads errday because rally carrrrrrrrrrrr
>>28735520Is this a joke? I push my 1.2 shitbox up to 100mph all the time on the motorway (can only really go over 99 when going downhill but whatevs). Car weighs less than a ton and feels fine. Engine is noisy as hell but it's perfectly driveable on a flat road.
>>28736783Anon in a car without a cage and harnesses youre going to fucking die at that speed regardless
>>28736530unless i was on buttery smooth highways, both my old tercel and mk4 golf felt a bit squirrely above 150kmh. current bmw shitbox feels good up to 180 or so. gets a bit floaty going above that, but it doesn't feel concerning
I'll keep it to the floor and run out to 110+ regularly if a certain local failing car company has hired 800 fucking people and theyre all competing to not get fired in 3 weeks.Hate the way those dumb motherfuckers all clog up and drive aggressively.
>>28735463>zoomzoom thinks 100 is fastlel
>>28735463Went to 210km/h on a state highway, was the fastest I' ever gone in a car and if I got caught I'd 100% be imprisoned for at least 3 months if not more
>>28735879Yeah and that’s not even top class speeds. A well set up blown gas flat bottom should run mid 7’s at mid 130’s mph. Top fuel hydros run ~3.5s @275mphhttps://youtube.com/shorts/HHQqby1mXzM?si=Cyd8o00Ar_6Bk-hH
>>28736896Not him but that's the plan id love to slam into a tree at 120mph and die instantly
>>28735463154 in WRX, was loud, decently stable, but boring. I rarely go over 75 anymore. flooring it on gravel/snow in 1st and 2nd gear are much more fun.
>>28735463about 230km/h (143mph), multiple times, on many different roads because that was the top speed>>28736457i did 100mph in a saab 900 from the 80s, it's nothingall this 10 years ago in euro truck simulator with mods of course
>>28735463Fastest was 107 on a sketchy, albeit freshly paved country road in a c4 lt1 6spd. Those gentle slopes turned into a rollercoaster at around 80I've done upper 90s on a freeway for a few miles at a time.I know if I ever try to do a top speed run then that's when the cops will be everywhere or there will be some tire scraps or some bullshit on the road itself
>>28735463Have you ever hit the chicane at the entrance to agartha doing 900 kph?
>>28737551Based and glocke pilled
>>28735463lol, is this a lot for Americans? I regularly drive over 160 kph on highways and I have never got a fine.
>>28735463I did once, this August, to about 110, under conditions weirdly suited--just after sunset on a 10 mile interstate stretch that happens to be unbelievably over-engineered for the traffic volume. (Most of the time I drive it, from anywhere between 60 and 90, it takes slight effort to maintain massive separation, typically a quarter mile. The route is pretty spectacular in terms of sheer engineering excess,) I hardly felt a thing through the seat of my pants as the vacuum fluorescent overhead display ticked over to 110, even as I rode over a certain bridge.
>>28737629*fun fact: In 1969, my dad, in a westbound jet saw the sun very very slowly rise on the western horizon from a 707. My own air speed record is about .85 mach, or whatever DD 10s make at 37,000 feet..
>>28735463>100mph/160kphThats literally the status quo in rural canada.
>>28735463Ford Transit minibus, completely by accident, on the motorway late at night (there were only a few people in it; they're overpowered when lightly loaded).
>>28735542This, 120 is the fastest I've gone with my C7, it takes forever to coast back down to reasonable speeds like 70 from 120, and that made me realize how dangerous it is
>>28735838why not drive on the track if youre so eager to floor it? why put other people in danger?
>>28738415>nooo you need to go to a track to use the full rev range of an engine!!!Why is this board full of slowfaglets?
I've never exceeded 88mphToo scared of seeing some serious shit!
You're retarded, you'll glide over a pothole at those speeds. AHHHH IM GOING 100 MPH IM GOING TO DIE AAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
>>28738379You have brakes you fucking MONKEY. USE THEM.
>>28738435fuck you don't even have to use your brakes, no one has to even see your brake lights, down shift and engine brake to slow down faster if you're worried about that. what you posted is so retarded its like TICKET ME PLEASE PLEASE TAKE ME TO JAIL
My old mk4 golf with a 1,6 maxxed out at ~185 kph on the autobahn.
holy shit, this thread is full of pussiesI've pulled nearly 200mph with my Hornet (fyi: if you go faster than roughly 150 mph, you have to lie flat on your bike like superman).get a grip you fuckin faggots. I don't why cagies are like this.
>>28738545>nearly 200mph with my HornetYou know being a retarded lying faggot isn't a good look?
>>28735463Did 115-120 a couple times in high school. Very lucky I was never caught. Nowadays I just pop it in cruise control at 8 over and I don't touch it. Just not worth getting pulled over and having to get a lawyer to reduce the charges.
>>28735463I've gone over 100 in everything from a Super Duty to a Geo Metro. Hit 130 in my C4 Corvette
>>28735463Doing 160 on a naked bike is an experience. My neck hurt for 2 days after that. Great fun tho.
>>28738818Doing 161 in my full-size family sedan was smooth sailing after the KW V3s and DINAN sway bars and monoballs
>>28738564I hit those speeds as soon as the damn engine is warm even in my slow daily
>>28738545They're nerds; what do you expect?
>>28738545>LyingWouldn't be me
>>28736783My friend spun his mom's C4 doing a top speed run BITD. He was doing 140ish on the highway when a curve approached and he braked and spun across the median. Luckily he didn't hit anything/anyone. >>28736929I also have a Tercel, it felt fine up to 110mph aside from not having a 5th gear to shift into.
>>28735463I'm german, so obviously with any car I got the chance to do it with.Only car it's ever been really scary in was a Daihatsu Cuore which just doesn't stay in its lane at that speed.I rarely go faster than that anymore though, had too many close calls due to other retards pulling out infront of me and the local Autobahns where I live now are all either through mountains or packed 24/7.
My old shitbike couldn't go faster than 152 km/h, and it didn't feel comfy or exciting at all.On straight roads I quickly lose the sense of speed, so there's no fun in it for me.
>>28735463Used to do it fairly regularly when I lived down South but I've been in Eastern Kentucky for too many years and there's not a road straight and long enough for me to be comfortable doing it.
>>28738851>110mph>a fucking tercelobviously you had one that wasn't from the 80s, these things top out around 150-160kmh. I'm sure all the body rust didn't help with stability either

>>28739086I have a '96 with the mighty 5EFE with a whopping 93hp.
>>28735463I hit 105 once. I was moving and didn't want to push her too hard, but it was a downhill in a really rural, empty area, couldn't resist. It only just then starts to feel fast...
>>28735463135 in a friend's stinger, 125 in my old rusted 04 civic 5 speed, 110 in my miata. short wheelbase of the miata made me feel like the slightest twitch will send you to your death, by contrast the stinger was boringly competentI've broken 100 in every other car I've ever owned but a list of half a dozen shitboxes isn't interesting
>>28735600>yarisyou mean echo? I think the echo > yaris btw
>>28735520I'm 33 and regularly do 100+ on a bike older than your mom with zero rider aids and worn out suspension. Just send it on roads you know. I know that realization though. For me it doesn't hit till about 120-140 depending on vehicle but yeah. You realize that if something catastrophic happens, you are in all likelihood going to die. You can do the reasonable thing and roll out of it. Of you can have faith your skill and your machine, keep the throttle open, and feel more alive than you ever have before.
>>28736402I thought it was only 11-12
>>28735463I think my highest was around 130kph and I only did it once or twice... I'm not saying it's a death sentence, but I'm not a good driver, so for me it could be mine, and even worse it could include other people who had nothing to do with my speeding, so I try to keep it around the maximum speed, unless the said speed is BS, like 40kph in a straight road.>I always wanted a Ferrari, though I know I'd never take full advantage, even the road/comfort based ones.
>>28735463I've done 105 in a K5 Blazer on I94. I've done 155 in an M3 on I90.
>>28741183Apparently '05-'14 all have 2 piece driveshaft. The '13-'14 one does look a bit beefier though.
>>28743294A 2 piece driveshaft is not necessarily a big problem. Hellcats have 2 piece driveshafts and they have 717 hp and can go 200 mph. It's the quality and durability of the driveshaft that matters the most.

>>28736530A Crown Vic without the 2003 suspension upgrades and no rear sway bar. There's probably a reason the P71s come with one as part of the package. Still plenty of grunt in the car at that speed even with the 4-speed slushbox though, they're all speed limited because the driveshaft turns itself into a pretzel.
>>28736530>unstableYEP. Found out in my 2010 Outlander (first time, first car, few years ago).Surprisingly the little 4 cylinder and CVT had no complaints but the whole car felt like a vibrating golf cart so I decided not to do that again
>>28735463lol every day coming home from work in heavy traffic no air bags idk if the engine was tightened down right either but it went like 110 only reason i didnt go faster is cause it felt like it would spin out cause the front wheels shake
I've gone in the 170s mph several times, 280 kph max. STi on the stock turbo with a tune, 15 years ago in the empty Florida panhandle.I used to drive over 100 mph every day for many years. Driven a few cars over 120.Haven't done it in a few months - getting old I guess. Pretty sure I haven't gone 120 in 6-7 years now.
>>28735463i only ever passed 100 once when driving on i95. i typically dont go past 80-85 unless i have to because muh fuel economy
