Got the Galant up to 125 on a run down Route 17 after it was freshly cleared from an accident! (Can you say, SCORE??)
I guess that way my reward for waiting patiently for 15 minutes. BWUAHAHAHAHA, I can keep up with an N/A.

Posting your top speed in public can get you in trouble. I do 67 all the time, write me up.

I was doing 49 since I was in a 50 MPH on Rt 50 today. I just got my 951 back after a few days at the body shop. I promise I was not going a mile over that............................................

In reality, I was doing 68....know why? (this is an old one)
Cause at 69 you eat it!
Well, it was funny when I was thinking about it.
Will the last Rennlister please turn out the lights?

You should optimise that intake of yours a little bit more and come back when you hit 180. Turbo wistle from ebay should get you there easily.

I had an indicated (just barely over) 140mph once, so like 142? On properly rated tires in my '87 n/a with a bursch header,test pipe,and cat back, as well as a K&N, throttle cam, and a new head. I know those mods don't do much at all but I wonder what my actual speed was...I know my speedo is probably off at that speed, but by how much? You think I was at least doing a good solid 135mph?
