I hope you're talking about top speeds while on the track. I don't want to hear about people doing a buck 30 down the local highway.

yeah 170+ is a whole new kind of fast.

My buddy had a 1997 Toyota Supra with a built motor and a Sound Performance 85mm turbo and we had the car past burried for 10-15 seconds (gauge goes to 180mph and the car was still pulling HARD

yeah if I remember correctly the autos dont have it, and the manuals have it due to redline, as far as speeds, I would hit fuel cut in the 240 at 115 on the HUD, I remember the first time I did it I thought I broke something haha. As far as the speed6 I've been to 155 and thats about as fast as I want to go without a harness and whatnot.

I went to the Frank Hawley driving school and took a Top Alcohol Dragster class. 230mph 1/4 mile. It was pretty intense.

My top speed was 114. I ran through 6 redlights , and 4 stop signs. The scary thing was i was doing this just when school was letting out and there were these kids crossing the crosswalk , did i stop? Hell no , foot to the floor! I think my passenger side mirror clip one of those kids in the head , i still have a mark there. Little bastard is gonna cost me money to have my mirror painted. I think i ran over a kitten to , but it was to mangled for me to tell.

How you like me now?

Fastest i've been in a 240 was probably 120 or 130.. The fastest i ever drove was like 110 in my brothers is350 he wanted me to drive home on the freeway. Why not kick it up a notch note it was at 1am. Not too stupid.

I believe the limiter is 140 or 145.
