190km/h im my uncles wrx

hello . i have done 180 Km/h ( about 112.5 mph ) in a peugeot 306 hdi with 116 cv maximum .... :o

went with dads freind to pick up merc form factory England to germany we did 289kmh 180mphish
it was f***ing amazing
sl65 AMG
i was only a smelly passenger
i have driven a car on a farm at 45mph cool i was trying to drift didnt work though

a SL 65 AMG !!! really ?:eek: no bul*sh*t ? that baby unrestricted gives something like 344 km/h !!! more than a murci or a f430 or a 911 turbo... whatever sportscar you want :rolleyes:

My cousin told me he once done 100mph in a old BMW 7 series.

65 mph.. <----- driver's ed!

My friend went that fast when he was getting his license. I'm still surprised he passed. Well him and I both barely passed by missing double-digit mistakes. He was aggressive and I was a dumbass (it's like a blonde trying to drive defensively)

My instructor keeps yelling at me.. hehe

65 in my dad's lexus gs 300 :) it was fun i only have my restricted so i have to drive with my dad. fortunately, i was able to drive by myself once and it was so exciting. the ride was about 40 mph.

140 mph-E60 M5!

Hi all ... 235 kph in my Maserati Biturbo Spyder (speedo) ... and it felt like a death wish both for me and for the ... little sp(y)der :)

http://www.duettomotors.com/tops/images/maserati_biturbo_spyder_2.jpg

Do you mean a zagato like this? I am very doubtful.

Hello Mate ( ...i do hope this is the propoer "down-under" expression :) ) ...

And yes ... it is actually as if i am looking at an exact photo of my car ... Even the colour scheme is identical :) ... 1994 Maserati Spyder Biturbo 2.0 L , 24 V, Gandini facelift ( one of the last production bunch ...there were not too many made after all ... but still i love it ;) ..)

Now ... indeed the speed noted was 235 kph ( speedo of course ) .. unless i was too terrified to see properly .. i could not hear anything anyway ... it was like flying the space-shuttle ... Nice , elegantly understated car the little Spy .. but no highway express for sure ...

Anyway , promise to post a photo next time i decide to take a chance with my life and if i manage to find a stuntman friend who will shoot it :D
Cheers

Hello Mate ( ...i do hope this is the propoer "down-under" expression :) ) ...

No offence, but if someone tried that on me in real life I'd give them a nice, friendly, ocker shivving.

(:p)

Ooooops ....my bad then :| ...sorry guys ... lack of culture insight :)

Don't worry about, I'm just pulling your chain, son.


(Or am I??)






Nah, just kidding. Welcome to the forums.

Ha , ha ... Thank u indeed :) ... and i guess i am due for some "sporting spirit" welcome treatment after all ...

Hi...................;)

Hi...................;)

Heh, no offense to you of course. Maybe I should have driven more like my friend but the fact was, I took the test somewhere else so I didn't have all the cool roads that he got to drive fast on.

to be honest I'm not anywhere near blond so I won't be offended :rolleyes:

i got my dads 4cyl saturn vue up to 140kph. for a 110hp SUV, thats pretty fast for the car. was hard to drive, steering got all fuzzy

The scariest thing I've done was 75 in a Mini Cooper. I think around a 1966 or so, I'm not sure. I don't even think the guy that owned it was sure of the year! lol... Shook worse than a Honda Civic on a Baja run! lol... But it was fun. I thought it was gonna shake it's little 10" rims off the car!

I did 105 in a '90 Subaru Justy. I was 12. It was when my dad and I drove cross country with no air, radio or power anything. Just the sound unbridled power surging through 3 cylinders.

well the fastest ive been in a car was 247(km), but im sad to say i wasnt driving :(. It was in my mates blown V8 commodore (how bogan is that?)

I guess the fastest speed ive driven was in a $150 Ford Cortina. I was bush bashin with a few friends and i got about 100. lame, but hey.:D

Just did 195 km/h (121 mph) in my rover, slipstreaming a porsche 911 (986 I believe). Beat my old record by 5 km/h

190km/h im my uncles wrx

yeah but i dont drive , i am only 16

where the hell did you manage to do that? what part of the country are you from?

What model commodore? Anything after VT is believable, anything before is less believable because they shake like mad at high speeds.

Anything is believable if you are gullible enough!

I live in sydney but i was in the country somwhere. i did 160 on a dirt road, funny

You're insane. I like you. :p

Just got my liscense last Friday.. It's really sweet! I can go where ever I want without my parents but there is a curfew.

lol thanks man

It shakes doesn't equal that it falls apart, right? :p

Lucky. I have to wait until August for that. Ugh, I would give anything to be able to drive places without my parents... No more being late because of my mom, I'll actually be able to listen to the kind of music I like at whatever volume I want, drive however fast I want without being told to slow down, freedom...

I've gone about 110mph in my Stealth. Not very fast, but im only 17 and i don't want to wreck it.

I was thinking all about that myself when I haven't got my liscense yet.. I couldn't go anywhere without another person driving me.

I did about 83 MPH in the Suburban this morning. I looked at the speedometer which read about 75 when I looked at it but since I still had my foot partly on the gas as well as going down hill, I gained 8 more MPH.

I did about 90 in my Seville....

It was nuts..that car handles high speed so well....and it's such a yacht...however let off the gas and the fact that it's a giant air dam will slow the car to 60 in 1/4 the time it took to get to 60

105...1998 Dodge Stratus.
I hope to be spending some time next month with a buddy at the strip, and up really up my speed.

~125 in 87 mr2.
The car started to shake at about 120 because it's a rear engine and the front was really light. I don't want to kill myself so I backed off. Besides I don't think it could've gone that much faster anyways.

Experiencing at high speed really makes you appreciate how good the pros really are. I know 125 wasn't that fast but it sure felt pretty fast to me.

195 km/h in a 2001 stratus rt (120 mph), it couldve gone more but i let go i didnt want to kill myself, i think i could do 205 km/h at the most

and the fastest speed ive been in a car was like 250 km/h in a mercedes benz e 500 (my friend was driving)

Just today my dad took me on the motorway. He entered a corner at 45mph and left at 25 when he saw the 30mph speed limit sign. He told me that in Iraq where I come from, there are no speed limits.

There's no speed limit for US Army vehicles. If you're in their way, and you don't move over, they can ram you. If you approach them in any semi-hostile way, they can shoot you.

As for non-military vehicles, dunno about that.

That reminds me of a tank I met a few weeks back. ******* nearly ran me over. I decided to overtake and the tank decided to take a left hand turn. The tank at that stage decided to take a left hand turn.

my dad went 225km on a vw passat on the germany auto bahn

so I did 140 mph in an E60 M5 in the middle of the day while weaving through traffic.Then very recently I did 120 mph in a Mini Cooper S. Very exciting stuff it was!

Did your dong feel bigger after that? Because it's certainly not going to make you more attractive.

70kmh...legally...and i mean it, although im only 12 years old! yea...i drove in my dads place where he gets to modify cars in the New Territories..

With an M3...

Edit: if my dad counts too, he went about 230kmh with an M3 CSL while test driving it on our Germany vacation, well, he sometimes go there to work..he has a German license...didnt buy the car but it was sooo fun!

I went about 115 yesterday at Great Bend... sideways! I blew a tire about 3/4 track and slid through the eyes staring at the wall. Scared the crap out of me! lol...

hello guys this is my first post...anyway about what is the fastest speed i driven at ? it is 175 km/h in a bmw 323 1996 .. i am 17 years old and i don't have a driving license coz here i have to be 18 years old ...so later when i ll have my car i ll speed moreeeeeeee....

Welcome to SCF! btw where do u live? u can get a licence when ur 16 or else ur living in a place like Hong Kong or do u?

my mate Mark has a 2 nissan skylines (1 white and 1 black), and 1 toyota supra (White) . he always takes me a cruise in the Black nissan skyline as it is the most powerful out of the three cars with 750bhp. When we was going to dumfries (a scottish town) he reached 170mph which i fast but it wasnt the fact that it hit 170mph, it's how fast it got to 170mph. Pretty quick. I thought the force was going to rip my face off. Anyway i survived and still not frightened to get into the Skyline. Skylines for ever

180 in a rental civic.damn thing won't go above 180..grr..

Include all of europe to that list making it all of europe.... and hong kong.

Very thoughtful to be inconsiderate.

@ zeyk, that's in kph. The scale goes to 240 :p

180 kph in a civic is rather fast still. Once did 180 in a civic quite a bit older then that one. Only afterwards people told me that the road I'd been driving on has a permanent speed check thingy installed. Guess they ran out of film :p

^^lol....ya that's in kph.
rented cars suck.i wud have done more if it was new or sumthing.

No you wouldn't. :p

1.5 liter engine?

1.7 i guess..neways it was jus for that day...so no probs..:D

If it was a 1.7 then the top speed would normally be little over 200 (either that or the 1.6 I've been driving had some mods the guy did not tell me)

Oh man, last Tuesday, I hauled ass on the freeway. I was doing 95 MPH but then decided to have that be the fastest speed because I felt the hugest amount of drag which surprisingly only effected the gas mileage by a small decimal. But I totally had enough room to bring it to 100 MPH if I wanted to.

135 mph in a 2004 SS impala, then the car shut off and my girlfriend yelled at me...

190mph 2003 996 Turbo X-50, on New Jersey Turnpike.

189mph in a 966 turbo on the QEW to Oakville

Took the electronic limiter of my dad's XR6T on the weekend, yesterday we took her for a "short" drive north out of the city, where the roads are narrow, surrounded by steep banks and shared with quite a few bigass trucks. I managed to get her up to 250kph before my balls ran out, which turned out be a saving grace, because just after I brought her back to 110 we passed through a speed camera :p

I haven't been driving faster then 100 mph for weeks now.
I feel so slowwwwww............

It's definately going to be time to get my FC back in one piece so I can drive some laps on a decent track again.

Stock? Did it feel long to get to that speed?

250kmp/h is very impressive, I seem to get pretty nervous and shaky around 140-160, passenger of course, but then again, this is residential area, narrow streets with cars parked everywhere.



I think last time I posted in here was after a trip to Brisbane in an APS Phase 3 XR6T Ute, damn that thing pulls hard. That thing just storms from 100 to 160 so quickly and with such ease.


Since then it's been outdone by an S13, 360rwkW, narrow parked-car-laden street, semi-slicks, late night darkness, rumbling SR.

Damn it's a scary thing, I don't know how he drives it in the wet.
It feels so strong and pulls so hard. Brakes even harder! the seatbelt was broken too, I just held it down with my right hand.

With asteering wheel in your hands it feels less frightening :D
Still, 250kph in a VW beetle 1300 is still scary now matter how you look at it.

She's had the entire exhaust system upgraded and a stage 3 turbo installed. Did it take long? Well, not really. Until then my fastest was 220 in my car, which was standing at the top of fourth gear to do it and took forever to get there. The Falcon breezed by in comparison, and probably could have gone up to at least 280. So much torque, and yet only a six. I was amazed.

MOTOR have always insisted the Turbo'd Barra is a far, far better engine than the BOSS 260.


So how much power & torque does it make? Dyno'd it yet?

Well that's certainly good to hear!

My pleasure, but honestly, once you get around to actually feelling the size of the car you're driving it's all not that bad.
I am scared *****less when my mom drives (she nearly drives in the gutter at rather high speeds)

My spacebar is dead as well. Guess you were right about it after all

Oh man, for some reason that really cracked me up. So random and blunt.

Freaky though, good ol' spidey-senses.

You're definetly not alone there. My mum talks, eats, well she does everything when she drives.

Just last week when we were coming back from brisbane she was talking on the phone, eating sushi, applying wasabi to sushi and talking on her mobile at the same time while steering with here knees. All on a highway.

Damn.

The good thing about highways is that they are wide.
Imagine the same interior sitiation in the following external situation though:

small road, about 5' wide with a gutter on the passenger side of the car and a 1' high concrete regularly interrupted seperation between the road and the river beyond it.

During a fairly uninteresting monologue about a greenhouse I regularly feel how the tires cross the gutter.

In regard to the topic, any speed is to fast for my convenience

What model commodore? Anything after VT is believable, anything before is less believable because they shake like mad at high speeds.
sorry for such long wait to answer, i dont really check up on posts. anyways, it was a VX Clubsport:cool: (5.7 ltr Blown Chev Gen III).

So how much power & torque does it make? Dyno'd it yet?


Nope. This is my old man we're talking about. He did a lot of the work himself and doesn't seem too interested in taking it to the drags or dynoing it. For him it's just the satisfaction of building something with his own hands. To be honest, I think he's worried that if he takes it to the dyno it'll pop up figures less than he estimated.

But if I can convince him to do it, I'll take the camera.

Old men and XR6T's...

The APS Phase 3 owner is my parents good friend and happens to live about 2 mins walk from here. He's a little kid at heart but between 50-60 (I'm not exactly sure).

He's a cool guy, he has a 380kW (@ fly) XR6T Ute, a black/red SP250 Dart, orders remote control aeroplanes over the internet, flys 'em, usually kills one then orders another, better one.

What a legend. He's also got this trick radar detector from the US. It's protected from Police anit-radar systems. lol

+1 for illegal radar. Only thing is it'll beep whenever you pass petrol stations for some wierd reason. It's handy when your car accelerates so quick, he can mash the throttle on the highway with the ease of knowing there's no cops near by.

That's gotta be midlife crisis. I knew my dad was going through one when he bought the Gixxer, but getting the falcon and tuning it sealed the deal.

Well, yeah.

I didn't mention it, but his wife who was one of my mother's best friends sadly died of breast cancer a few years ago. What better to live life to the max with than a boosted Barra.

An HSV GTO? :p

My ex's dad was a legend, and loaded too (hence my love for his daughter :p). He bought himself an E39 M5 brand new to help get over his second divorce. He was kinda my mentor for a bit, until I realised that the business world sucked and turned to other pursuits to achieve the massive amounts of money required for my Zonda.

Well, if you want a flat slug of a two-door Commodore.

Riiiiip.

Isn't ironic i'm a Holden fan? lol

Hey who cares about the weight? It's a cruiser. It has torque. It's fast as all hell compared to 80% of the cars on Australian roads and it has back room for five girls. I know, because I've seen it done in a Monaro.

BTW Saying it's a cruiser is the perfect excuse to have a slow car or an auto. As long as it looks good, nobody argues.




Just for on topics sakes, a friend of mine once hit 240kph in a stock SS ute (VY). Or so he claims. You reckon there's truth to that?

Possible, yeah, but it would have taken an insane amount of time at 200kmp/h + to finally reach the 240.

Surely he couldn't go that long while breaking the law, avoiding present danger and having the balls to do so at over 200. I'd say it probably hit a brick wall of speed at 220-225 then crawled to 240 after a long while.

yo Rave/Parko (anyone?)

I've tried looking up the the XR6T you both were talking about
from the few Aussie based articles I could google.Pretty impressive vehicle I must say :smt047 Turbo'd 4.0 inline six,not too shabby.All I could get though in terms of specs were in kW & Nm.Can either of you do this Canuck a favour & translate into HP & TQ pls & thank you.Really interested as to what the Falcon can do. Peace !

http://www.ford.com.au/global/img/range/falcon/hero_xr6t.jpg

Power - 328hp

Torque - 345 ft-lbs @ 2000rpm


The XR6T my parent's friend's XR6T has roughly 500hp at the fly and a sh*t load of torque (yeah, not sure of it's torque figure)


His is APS Phase III tuned, APS do good work.

http://www.airpowersystems.com.au/falcon/xr6turbo.htm

Looks neat but I don't like the rims :p

Since this is not europe I suppose it's rear wheel drive?

Thanks Parko...as for the Falcon's output, :eek: :eek: :shock::shock:
Those APS staged kits look pretty gnarly too...must cost a lotta coin to get those kits bolted on. Most impressive !

Yeah, the wheels are pretty lame. The BVA models had nicer wheels in my opinion.

Yep, RWD.

No worries, and it's not that expensive really, considering the gains. Especially when you think that's Porsche's PCCB option cost 18k AUD.

I think he's spent about 18k AUD on it, Phase II kit fitted etc. and a brake upgrade afterwards.

With me drving 110 i only have my permit. 140 with my dad driving in his marauder.

110 with your permit? Either you're lying or I hope you crash into a telephone pole.

30km/h on my legs

Welcome to SCF! btw where do u live? u can get a licence when ur 16 or else ur living in a place like Hong Kong or do u?

i live in Lebanon ( the middle east) so i have to be 18 to get a driving license
