Wasn't down the 1/4 mile, but down the front straight at Texas Motor Speedway, I've been 140-145MPH, only to take a dip into turn one at 110MPH+, riding passenger in my brother-in-law's bad ass 1995 trick out M3.

I've had the Cobra up over 130MPH down the straight and dropped it into turn one 100MPH+ on the same track.

Ain't nuttin' like committing to a turn at 100+MPH.

The other favorite turn for me (I make it almost daily) is the exit off 190 to 78/Garland. Take that sucker 80MPH. Makes my whole day.

180mph in a stock car. 1997 GTS Viper. Had that car for a couple of weekends, pretty fun. Did the 180 on I-45 one night, probably could have gotten a little more, but I shifted to sixth (just to see if it would cruise 180, and it dropped to 175.

man .. when the car finally started running good.. it started leaving the line stronger and stronger.. especially after the Wolfe Sway bar was installed.. then one night out of no where.. it did a huge ass wheelie.......... like on the bumper... scared the shit out of me, but at the same time it was like sweeeeeeeettttt.... it 60 ft'd 1.42 on the back tires.. :eek:

150 while driving one of the Team Texas cars at TMS. And I had a cool instructor who let me pass someone in the middle of turn 4.

130 at the end of the straight on the TWS 1.8 mile course in my Vette. That meant about 110 in the transition off the bank, which was pretty exciting the first few times. Early apexed turn 7 once flat out and ended up with 2 wheels in the dirt at around 120 on the exit.

Went about 165 in an IRL car at Las Vegas Motor Speedway (driving classes, complimentary of World Karting Association, given to the top three national winners). They were governed...sucked!

I also went about 135 at Texas World Speedway, in a go kart though. It feels like about 450 mph in a kart .5 inches off the ground!! it was an 'enduro' kart that you practically lay down in, powered by a 125 honda shifter

Turn one is lots of fun! Esp. when making the transition into two turn (i think I can make it, I think I can make it....)

Saw a brand spankin' new M5 one weekend miss turn two, which was ironic, since he was so looking to pass me on the straight. Came out of turn 1, make the nice sweep into two, and *poof* a cloud of dust was all I saw behind me.

TAMUz06, those are awesome numbers. I won't embarrass myself, but I'll tell you I HAVE gone 10.30's in the quarter, but it was on a big bike 20 years ago. Believe it or not, that was once a great time on a bike.

I did the team texas thing to at TMS, my job gave me 20 laps. I got to pass someone in turn 2 on the outside. I did 135 in a E55 mercedes at TMS. Both were fun as hell!

On the 1/4, 108.

Did 125 on the street in my stock T/A (that's all the
OEM olds 403 would do) way back when.

Did 130+ on the street on a customer's yamaha 1100
back when I was a bike mechanic.

Best 1/4 in the T/A so far is a 12.53 @ 109. If I can
ever afford to buy some new parts that'll come down
considerably.

You are correct turbostang...not a Mustang. 1998 Acura NSX was the weapon of choice. Felt good at 170. Went along for 4 or 5 miles at that seed came to some curves and had to slow way down to 130... 130 feels like a crawl (even in a lazy corner) in that car after a high speed blast!


I do miss her...but the Cobra is a blast as well!

Cmarsh93z
07-03-2002, 06:40 PM
~ 185mph in my 93z on I-45
~ 198mph on the ZX12 on I-20 several times
~ 190mph on the Zx12, with Arlington's finest trying to catch up!

Also have gone 170+ on numerous bikes and cars.....too many to list :)

The fastest 1/8 is around 6.5........went 6.5 @ 106mph in my 92 coupe, and went 6.5 @ 116mph on the Zx12. The 12 trapped 142mph+ in the 1/4...and

70mph once when driving through Oklahoma :) Actually whatever 5500 rpm is in OD with 3.73 gears, somewhere around 170mph. On a drag strip 129 mph and about 120mph cruising around TMS. Fastest on a bike was 105mph, plenty fast.

I pegged the speedo out on my car going 140mph+ with the top down and a few passengers at the end of 360 (south). Also, I've raced a powerstroke super duty up to 135mph in the same night.

11.8's at 118+ in the quarter in Vegas.

The overall fastest I've been while driveng was 142, and at the same time being passed by CMarsh93z doing 160+ on 287 heading to The Motorplex.

The fastest I have been while riding was Mach 1.2 (approx. 800+ mph depending on altitude) and pulled 8.7 G's in the back seat of an F-16, sorry guys but there is not a more awesome ride than 57 min. ride in an F-16. :D

On the ground though was 187 in a Viper GT-S on I-15 between Vegas and Cali.

hell, i think i was in the car on that mid 130`s run, and you had like 10 psi in the tires!


Fastest i have gone? About a hair under 160, as the speedo was pegged well past 160 (on the stock 3.23`s) and i lost track of RPM`s in 5th as i was approaching a "gentle" bend. Trust me, there is nothing gentle about any bend at 160 plus with 3 screaming GM fans yelling for me to quit it!

Fastest in my 01 NBM Z28 at the track was: 1/8 was 7.0@102, 1/4 11.0@126
Fastest in my 01 NBM Z28 on the highway was: 157mph limited.

Fastest in my 02 WHT Z28 at the track was 1/4 12.2@117
Fastest in my 02 WHT Z28 on the highway was 167mph being passed by zonsense doing 175mph+ in his Z06 :eek:

Fastest in my 91 coupe was 145mph on 67 being chased by Cedar Hill's finest :D

Fastest in Zosense's Zo6 was 175mph in the passenger seat.

Also ridden with Cmarsh on many 130mph+ blasts in many cars including his mom's 10 sec 00' SS and her 00 Beatle and even her beloved Audi TT :eek:

do the math...

2.60 gears 1-1 top gear, 255/40/17, 6,800 RPM pulling. rev limiter is 7,200 with chips... tell me what you get, that is what I was seeing. Regardless it was damn fast.

Engine RPM: 6800
Vehicle Speed: 194.763549432459
Read End Gear: 2.60

that is what I came up with. I had a slight tail wind, so that was probably helping me out obviously

well-

I went 140 in my mom's Cadillac STS when I was 13 years old.
Went 160ish in a z28 ls1, a4, with 2.73s and a lid.
Went 155 in:
AMG C32
AMG SLK32
AMG CLK55
S 500
CL 600
And took a maxima to 135

Working at a dealership kicks ass :)

I took my 66 Mustang Convert to 120 (pegged) Scary shit in that car, anything over 80mph and the whole front end was floating...

Unfortunately my current car will only do 85 mph. :(

Although at the track its had trap speeds in the upper 130s. The track's photogates must be off, cause the speedometer said 85.

On a different note, even though the excursion has a limiter at 93?mph, I was clocked at 105 about a week ago. I didn't even give the trooper a chance to hit his lights and siren. I didn't wanna go to jail :(

I've done 170+ in the vette, and prolly 160+ in the T/A...both numerous times. The vette prolly reaches 150 at least twice a week.

The 12 will bury the speedo, which if I remember stops at 220mph. There have been several bolt-on Zx12's reach 198-205 mph. I for sure know ARH's bike goes 200, cause it used to be mine, and it went 200 when I had it :) And it only dynoed 174rwhp when I had it....180+ with the new pipe and mods Nick did...so you do the math!
