If you believe speedometers...

Young and stupid days:
1. 160 in 928 s4
2. 160 on GSX 1100 (this was incredibly fast and scary)
3. 120-140 in assorted vehicles

Older and not as stupid days:
1. 115 in the S2000 with the top down

242 Km/h (150 mph) in my stock euro S2000 Blue Montecarlo. With the roof open.



(235 Km/H (146 mph) in my old stock euro Porsche 944 '84)

1 mile = 1.609 Km

139 m.p.h. the day-after I bought my S2000 in North Carolina. There was a pesky Z3 roadster (not the M) that was playing with me... and (I'll attribute it to not being broken in) disappointedly, I couldn't hang.

I kinda didn't pay attention to the RPMs and break in that day. Whoops.

approx 130 in the Stook,
165 on the nose in the 98 Vette I had, the speedo was reading 169, but the Garmin GPS only recorded a top speed of 165
150ish in a 97 Supra a friend owns.. at that speed(150) it was pulling harder than my Vette did at 80, of course with a Dynojet tested 550 hp to the ground, it had ALOT more to go for top end.. (had SP60 single turbo, and since we had just left the drag strip, still had the 100 octane fuel he's bought so he could run high boost)

B*stard!! j/k I'm so jealous that I'm turning green

That's such a rare car so consider yourself very fortunate he was showing off.

... I only rode in that car once and it was a customer car and basicly he just wanted to come over to show off..
