The fastest that I've gotten is 137 on the highway. Would of gone higher but it really gets scary when you are going that fast. The only thing that was going through my head was making a small mistake and flipping like 7 times.

As zack342 said, give your max (even stock) more credit. I got to 120 without realizing - it's so smooth. Dangerous? I think the guy here in B'ham, AL who made the paper for getting ticketed for 197 on a bike would protest.

i have without a doubt put that meter over 145mph on the highway, if u just floor it for a long enough time with enough mods its pretty easy.

i dunno i think that its quite fast but it was still a smooth ride tho none the less

I've hit 105 on 287 South before and 115 on 78 East racing a 94-95 ish Jag. Beat the **** out of it then slowed down, cuz I seen a cops lights maybe 2 miles down and he finally went by me I'd say doin 120, but my point was proven lol. I just stared at him and laughed when he went by and shook my head. See, now that's one good thing about not having tints yet.

I backed off of her doing about 125 with plenty to spare. All i had at the time was a intake. Hadn't had the alignment done when I did it.
