143 heading into Atlanta on I-85. After ignoring the advances of an Eclipse for a few miles, I couldn't stand the sound of his bumble bee muffler any longer. I don't think he ever got over 120.

162 before coming upon a pack of cars REALLY FAST, racing a Z06 on our way to NOPI Nats last fall-top up, no passenger, full trunk, 1/2 tank of gas, dry pavement, afternoon in Tennesee. (I think the Vette was impressed)

145 down I-5 in Calif -- it was a heavy overcast, mid-week day, so I knew the airplanes wouldn't be out. If you haven't seen it, I-5 was built wide and straight, specifically for truckers and folks like us to get it on. Nobody goes slower than 80, cause it's wide open and B O R I N G. I was very impressed with the car -- solid as a rock. At about 130, I passed one guy who did a definite eyebrow raise. First and only time I've ever doubled the speed limit on an interstate highway (limit is 70 out there).

114 on I - 64 in Kentucky. I've only had the car for a month or so...so I've been pretty cautious so far.

131 mph on the 405 north at 3 a.m. When you hit the brakes pretty good and slow down and notice you're still doing 105, that's a weird sensation.

I went 162mph at 2:30am. Every time I passed a car my car swerved into the other cars draft. it was scary. The lines in the highway were solid i couldn't see were they broke apart. It was a rush..
