How are you guys getting over the "official" top speed from Honda of 150 mph for an AP1 S2000?

I've done 136 mph with the top up in the S2000. I've done 155 mph in an NSX that my Dad was driving.
Don't forget we are talking speedo speed, not real speed In my case, I was a bit too busy to read GPS speed

In addition, a slight downhill or tail wind will help

I'm not condoning of speeding on public roads in any way, shape or form, but I'm sure there are quite a few of you who have driven your S at very high speeds. Well, I have two questions for you:

1) How fast have you driven your S?
and
2) What is the fastest you have driven any car?



For me:

1) 148 mph
and
2) Only driven the S at speeds past 125 mph.
driven 170mph.

with the S, 115 mph. speed cut not removed.

130 mph, and that was only because i was running from someone. Other than that i do not go over 95 mph. There is no reason to unless you are on a track or something. With the unstability of these cars at high speeds, i don't trust putting my life in danger like that. Give me a bmw 7 series and and that would change im sure.

125 in the S
140 in my Prelude
123 on the bike
167 in a Twin Turbo Supra but I wasn't driving so this was the scariest of the 4!

Haven't been over 100 in any car in 2 years.

126 in my 98 Integra GSR
128 in my S2000 (much easier!)

just wanted to pass the teg

Another reason why gears would be a nice add. I really don't see the need to go beyond say... 140 on chicago roads!
