Top speed you've gone?????

What is the top speed that you have gone in any car? What HP did it have?

I bounced of the rev limiter(127 mph) in my old Supercharged civic a number of times, but I've only had the GSX up to 125mph. I know it's got a lot more, but I'm getting some pretty bad blow-bye.......

ive gone 135 in my car and i was at 5500 rpm, as soon as i hit 135 car backed off almost as if i hit a speed limiter. ive gone just short of 170 in my uncles 96 911 turbo.

Just past the 145mph mark limit on the 1st gens.

I rode in a Supra that had the speed limiter removed and we hit just under 180mph and that was a bit crazy on a dark interstate at 2am. If there had been anything in the road at that speed that would have been our last memory.

I've had the ol GS to 127-129 (hard to tell) but 5th wouldn't pull anymore, maybe I hit the speed limiter.

i went 137 in my 92 TSi awd, stock except for k&n filter.. and my engine was missin at anything above 5k rpm at WOT, so the last 20mph or so of that was not flooring it

this was around midnite on i-80 west (2-lane) in illinois

I've gone 160mph in my 351W Capri - at that speed and the flat front end it was like pushing a wall of air

(the only reason for 2.73 gears - top speed)

Slammed the rev limter at 172mph in my SE-R. (This wasn't "speedo" verified either...the gear ratio and tire size at 7800rpm calculated to 172mph)

The car was still pulling like a frieght train. 409whp will do that.
