Just curious as to how fast you've gone...not as in OVER the limit, but the maximum overall speed you've obtained. For me, it's 211mph. I've been very fast in a few cars, and it's fun. Went 172mph in a Corvette, 135 or so in a Viper. The 211mph was in a purpose built pickup truck. It went like a bat, too. It made 997HP at the rear wheels, so figure about 1150 or so at the crank...maybe a little more. My next goal is 250mph or better, but finding a street legal vehicle that I can do that with is gonna be pretty tough! I'd love 300mph, but short of getting a Top Fuel ride, that probably won't happen.
