I voted 100-110 knowing that during the "Meet Rick Hesel Sunday" back in November I easily pushed into 110 with the top down (looked down at the speedo once and was at 110, but since I wouldn't allow myself to look at my speedo very often at that kinda speed and on the, gulp, roads that we were taking -- smooooth would *not* describe them! -- I can't swear that I didn't go even faster once or twice)...so I won't over-kill and suggest that I went any faster 
...
But the kicker was doing 110...and looking in my rear view mirror and seeing 1Randyc with his supercharger literally fill my mirrors up as though I was sitting still. WOW!!!
With the year winding down, its the perfect time to say this: Thanks again guys for the great time up in Maryland that weekend... Wait!, that deserves a separate thread...

141 and the car was stable as can be considering the short wheelbase. I got popped by a state trooper shortly after backing off the throttle and had slowed to 99. Troopers radar proved the accuracy of my speedo though as it read exactly 99 when I crested the rise and the trooper went by the other way.

Or check my sig,i'm sure you know what it is, if no it's a Campagna T-Rex
saw one in my neighborhood. Equipped with a Kawasaki ZX-11 engine.
Not the fastest but it has a 0-60 time of 4,1 and 236 km/h of top speed
(limited by radar).

My best is 148, top down of course. That was with 5th gear winded completely out, instead of going into 6 I just left it in neutral and coasted back to 55. On a side note, I don't think the car should have the top up unless it is raining, and even then you can make exceptions. Heck, I drove for 45 minutes top down at 20 F and hit 105. But anyways...
