A couple of years ago I went to Ft Lauderdale two days after doing a Dinan Stage III upgrade to my M3. Set my onboard copmuter to record my top speed and got to 184mph. Was the fastest I have ever been in a car or bike. I can't wait to do it again. Maybe Mike will take me out in his new Saleen S7 and we can top that....

yep..stupid morons...

acting all "cool" while risking others peoples lives...shit want to showoff go to a proper track or something like that...

Some mentioned tickets before.....

In 1995 in my Mustang GT I got nailed doing 130MPH. I was written up for exceeding 100MPH, got a $600 ticket, and two points on my DL (out of a possible four points).

I also got pulled over last month on my bike. I was doing about 120MPH coming onto the freeway. The officer wrote me up for 80MPH+.

After thinking about it, someone mentioned accidents as well.

I had an accident when I was 17 - My car spung out, did a 360, and hit an oncoming car head on. Both cars were destroyed and I was lucky no one was killed.

I've laid down a few bikes but only at slower speeds.

On the freeway down the road from my house every is going 80MPH, pretty much packed in like sardines. You have an accident at that speed you are pretty much dead because you'll be hit by a dozen other cars.

And a blowout on a motorcycle at any speed over 60MPH can kill you.

More like it

60 miles = 100 kmh

whats to stop another motorist from using their cellphone and calling the cops.

If it doesnt modify gear ratio, top speed is likely to be the same. You just get there faster ;)

217mph on my R1 and around 180 in a race car.... I race SCCA solo 1 and 2.....

I keep asking MikeAI when he will let me drive his SL55.
To be honest, I'd be too scared I would scratch it!

lol

He did take me out and we were up to 130 in no time.. then it started to rain so we slowed down.
It's certainly a nice fucking car!

SL55 does 335km/h without speed limiter. It blows Ferraris and Lamborghinis off the road in longer sprints.

SL55 does 0-300 in 32,5 seconds. The Ferrari 550 Maranello does it in 61,2, Porsche 911 GT2 in 40,9, Lambo Murcielago in 34,2. :)

I've seen Mark's car, and I know Mark. That car will do 160mph if the car wants to or not! LOL!

DH

I'm still laughing at how some of the guys in this thread that don't own or ever will even drive a nice car think they know everything cause they read some factory specs in a car magazine.........

It's always a blast until you run into a sedan from behind and kill the families newest addition. Then it's too late.
