I think 110+ on my 94. And 120 on a Volvo 4 speed I had. Haven't done that again.

A little over 155 in my '85 GT Vert with the top down!!
175 on a gsxr 750!
Top speed in the Cobra so far. 40 MPH. Just fast enough to get it home with no tags after I bought it.

I've never got it above 100, but I've only had it for 2 months so there's still time to go beyond.

A vehicle under my control?

Around 220MPH (195kts) practicing spiral dive recovery in a Piper Arrow.

Like this:


Ok, I'm cheating but the sphincter factor of dropping like a rock with your windscreen full of ground deserves honourable mention.

I concur... looking UP out the windscreen at the ground WILL wake you up! (spin training!)

In an airplane I was flying, 220 knt. ground speed.

In a car... pretty dang fast!

We have a back country road that stretches 2 miles and nobody is ever on it. Its straight and freshly paved. 07 gt 500 shelby had it at 150mph. 06 GT 120mph. Have only did it once in each car.

I did 120mph at Dover Speedway.(closed course, professional driver (me), don't try this at home etc...)
That's cool, my fastest is also in an Audi TT on the autobahn. I did 168mph with the top down between Trier and Kaiserslautern on a lazy Sunday afternoon. Fastest in the Bullitt was 141mph at an undisclosed time/location.

132 in my stock 85 GT. 4th or 5th gear, it didn't make any difference.

On a public street I have gone as fast as the posted limit.
On a runway, I don't know I was to afraid to take my eye off the road, to glance at the speedometer.
