I hit 135-140mph with more power to go while racing an integra with TurboSupra as a passenger. Damn cars got infront of me so I had to slow down.

highest i've been is 165 while racing a turbo integra gs-r and a modded Z28. same stretch of road that got rice did it on. i think they gave up or just ran out of steam around 140, but the car kept wanting to pull so i let her go. would have taken it further with plenty more left in 6th, but traffic was coming up fast. i need to bury 180 sometime

drive safe

in my 91 accord i did 160...but that car had a H22a and spoon ecu and a rev limiter of 9000 and no speed limiter, in my cl i hit 135 on the freeway on my way to court for a speeding ticket (go figure) and in my TL that i had briefly it maxed out at 140, andf my newest addition (1960 vw bug) i hit 120 on the freeway.

The highest I've ever gone on my cl was 145mph. I was behind my friend, he has a prelude and we were racing a firebird.

Where exactly are you mounting it so that it is:

1) Not so visible as to temp idiots to jack that shit
2) Not blocking your speedo or tach
3) Clearly visible for you to see while driving

I've been debating it for a while, but I can't figure out a good place to mount it.

125 in my CL coming back from Atlanta last month with a fully loaded car. 150+ in a 300Z TT out in the wastelands of West Texas a few years ago.

I must find a nice stretch of road out here in the East to occasionally get my speed fix on!

Only about 120 in my CL, but 170+ in a 1970 NASCAR prepared Plymouth Superbird!

Scared the shit out of me!
