Default Top speed!!!!!!

List them... the fastest you've ever driven any and all of your cars and/or other people's cars/vehicles. I'll go first... none of these were on radar... only indicated by the vehicle speedometer

'83 VW Rabbit GTI - (two of them) both indicated 120ish. The speedometer went to 85 but I had both of them pointed straight down on several occaisions

'86 Silverado - speedo only went to 85 but I had it rapped to about :40 past the hour

'93 Arctic Cat Thundercat - speedo goes to 100 and had it pointed straight down (120ish)

'99 Thundercat - same results as above

'91 S-10 4.3 5speed - speedo stopped at 85 and I kept going quite a ways after that... couldn't tell you how fast I was going

'03 Silverado - Speedo went to 120 and I buried it... It looked to be indicating about 130ish mph

'09 Mustang GT - indicating about 135... another gear and alot more power on the table... wating for Summer to update that one

'08 Mustang Shelby GT500 - indicated 140 with three people in the car... bone stock

'04 Yamaha FZ1 - indicated 165 on several Occasions

'03 Yamaha R1 SE - Indicated 177, bike wasn't mine but had full exhaust and power programmer

'08 R6 - indicated 155

'02 Z06 procharged - indicated 165 a couple times

'04 Audi S4 - indicated 160 mph

I know there are a few I'm leaving out, but this is a good start for the thread lol

97 Talon - 132/3 probably could have gotten a few more out of it but the road started going uphill

04 Srt-4 - Over 150+ I let off after having some fun with a BMW and it was slowing down to 150
