I got 100 indicated in the 914 on the way to one of Bowlsby's brekfasts.

I've gotten 120 indicated in the Subaru on the way to work in the past.

I'm not posting any more details on here lest it become written evidence.

Andy, it was in a borrowed Opal 1.8 four door. Yep, I was in the left lane just after passing a slow truck that I took the pic flat out! POS car but it was free to use for 2 weeks while we were in Holland.

On a bike I did about 130 mph across the I-90 bridge
In the 914 I did 120 indictated across the I-90 bridge
In my brothers souped up 240Z car a 135mph
I havent taken out the Madza RX7 Turbo car yet....soon when Blair isn't lookin....

135=Beetle (Chipped)
156= BMW 745iL (Chipped)

Never again though. Those who have actually been over 150 know what I'm talking about when I say that the "dotted lines" on the road turn into a solid.

In the BMW, I couldnt take a picture because of saftey reasons, Too fast! Almost wiped out, stupid suburban in the fast line at a speed lower than 65MPH. Pulled out in front.

Those who know the Georgia Autobaun (HWY 400) thats where. Great straights.

Never over 100 now.

165 mph in a 97 Z28 six speed that was massaged to 380hp, on a two lane road. I passed a cop coming the other direction. It was at night and my adrenaline got the best of me, as I saw the car coming, I went to dim my brights, and it turns out they weren’t on in the first place. I inadvertently flashed the cop at 160. I’m sure you can imagine he was just a tad upset. To make a very long story short, I got off on a technicality. It turns out he never got a positive ID on the car because he was blinded by the brights. In any event, I was so traumatized that I sold the car shortly thereafter when I found out that my auto insurance would have gone up to $400 a month had I gotten the ticket, which almost certainly would have included reckless driving.
