that's actually true. 234 km/h is about 145 mph

 

5.5 gens don't have gubernors. Not that I know...

160 mph (closed course track of course... )

 

and then it blew up

 

Nope. I did that when the engine had around 12k on the ODO. At 120k on the ODO, I was lucky to break 100....

 

I know someone here who has done max speed on a dyno, and it wasn't 160.. Don't believe your speedometer, it will lie to you.

I was referring to mph...But I just got to a clsoed course and did 678

 

i was talking about the US, but have you ever been to europe? the autobahn is far different from any highway in the states. i was referring to people doing 100+ in areas where you cant tell whats that far ahead of you or areas where theres a good amount of traffic. ive almost been killed by about 3 people who were driving wrecklessly out of control. if you wanna drive ridiculously fast in an area where theres no traffic and you have plain sight of the road in an open area, go for it as long as your life is the only one endangered by your driving.

 

So has anyone given this poor guy a legitamate answer to his problem, instead of arguing about the quality of different nations drivers and the top speed of our cars?

 

and I know someone here in the very room I'm in that had a GPS during said 160 run. It was actually 158, but who's counting....

 

I have. Twice. Nobody noticed though....

 

Who listens/reads what you post though?

 

I can get mine up too 198 kmh and thats it...but it says it will do 260 kmh what gives??

 

2 year old thread FTL.

 

sweet, and old thread

you dont need to go that fast so stop worrying about

you actually think the top speed on the speedo is the top speed of the car??? classic
