Thats what I thought. I was retarded once and went a little above 145 I think? But how does everyone know the exact mph?

Yeah, I never got up that high on the beltway. Better hope you didn't get your picture taken.

120 on a deserted freeway at night, felt smooth and with the tune had a lot left. Thanks Brent . Did a 110 a few days later in the daylight on a back road and the hood was bouncing around so bad I thought I was about to get a super close-up of my hood scoop.

An RPM reading and a little math goes a long way.

About 90 mph on an on-ramp. Little over 1300 miles.

Considering how retarded speeding laws are, especially in VA, I have to lay easy on the gas most of the time. There's hardly anywhere around here where you can take it up to higher than 100mph without running head-long into some traffic down the road.

There is an old country road through some farmland not far from here that I frequently dust. There's too many turns, hills, and blind corners to really get up to speed, but it definately shows the performance ability of the 'Stang.

As for speed, there's one part where if I have a good clean shot, I can hit this small hill and get all the wheels off the ground for about 2.5 seconds. Really rocks...although once I did it and there was a cow halfway wandered onto the road on the other side. Almost had 'Stang-flattened betsy!

If you hit reset on the computer when it's displaying avg MPH, it will give you an exact reading at that moment in time. That's how I confirmed my 155mph...
