Yeah, it was about due a ressurection
The fastest I've reached is 183mph, that was 6th gear redline on the long straight at Castle Coumbe a couple of weeks ago, on the GPS box rather than speedo (which gets a bit innaccurate after 150mph

Fastest I've driven - 145km/h in a Holden VC Commodore Wagon [anyone in Austraila knows that these things are tanks and getting past 100 in a 24 year old car is anything but easy]

Fastest I've been driven - Off the needle in a 1985 Mazda 323 hatch. It hit 180 and the needle couldn't keep up. From the whine of the engine me and my friend estimated 210-220km/h. Did it once, never did it again.

Just a note: IF YOU SPEED YOU ARE A MORON. DONT DO IT! I've seen people killed and I mean literally seen people killed, dead, bodies, because they were speeding. Do. Not. Speed.

120+. My dad's gauge in his 1969 Camaro SS didn't go higher than 120, but we could tell we still kept on accelerating. 8)

Its not possible, unless it was a turbo. In which case I REALLY wouldn't want to do 220kph in it.

Tell me how it isn't possible? Not trying to be offensive, but I'd like to see your reasoning behind this. Hell my 81 Datsun Sunny would probably hit 180 with little to no trouble. All you need is a fair stretch of road. :) And I'll admit now, it was an extremely stupid thing to do, but its not impossible.

That works out at 137.5mph. The car isnt physically geared, nor does it hold the power to travel at that speed.

I've only driven around 140km/h because that was the max speed of my friend's Nissan Micra :D.
I would've lost my license with that speed anyways.
The road had a 80km/h speed limit.
I'm not much of a speedfreak.
I don't even drive that often.

Edit: Oh and i dunno if i've ever been driven faster either.
I was a passenger in a rally car once but we were driving around some small dirt track so the car didn't go that fast.
lol wut

When I was young and stupid I hit 125 MPH (approx 210 KMH?) in my 1988 1.8 Opel Manta on the A3 (by the speedo), downhill with a following wind!

As I need my licence for my career, I now very rarely exceed (**cough** 90 mph **cough**) speed limits, honest Officer.
