115mph on the back stretch at Mid-Ohio. Once I get better tires and brakes, that should go up a bit.

235-series all-season tires on a muscle car with 400+ HP... Really, Ford?!?!

Maybe in that Boss. 150 is super fast in that little terminator body. Just don't have the marbles to try and top mine out.

Wanted to get to 170 a couple times, but ran out of straight road of hit traffic.

This isn't 100% on topic but I figured it was relevant enough, for those of you who live in Germany for example and have access to these long stretches of unlimited speed roads, what do you consider the safe RPM limit for cruising? I always wondered if people blow their cars up along the autobahn all the time from cruising at 6000RPM all the time flat out or something. haha

And to stay on topic, 120 is as fast as I've gone in my stang... I got my truck up to 90 once, and lets just say 120 in the stang is a far more relaxing experience. haha

Next fall I might try the 1/2 mile run they have in north Florida.
