I've seen 145 with the top down but the wind make it a little hard to hear the stereo at that speed. Need a speaker upgrade I think

155 with another person in the car and the top up. At the time, the car was stock. The car was still going, but I didn't have the gutts to push it anymore.

153 with top up, 134 top down. I don't think I'll try to top those numbers though.

That's incredible - it's showing 7,400rpm on the tacho (in 6th I pressume) - that equates exactly to 138mph ... where's your speedo error? :-)

140 mph, couple of Thursdays ago, 12:45am going up I-71. Mustang GT stayed with me to 130 then fell back.

Its amazing how stable the car felt at that speed. Made me do this ==>

Never thought I would ever go that fast. Must have a screw loose!!!!!
