iv went 193 in mine.I hit 90 in my Porsche right after we put the engine in it... it shook so bad I thought it was gonna rattle apart! Found out that the front suspension was pretty much falling apart. Runs great now though. It'll do about 125 the way it's set up. Corners like a slot car though. Very fun car. Everybody should own a Porsche at least once... and 914's don't count! lol

Porsches handle great, superb even. But I think everyone should own a RWD car with some power atleast once. Most people dont appreciate that a car can take corners at 90 MPH, but they all appreciate a car that can crush their organs to the seat. :-k

True... I have one of those too... lol. If you want to feel what a real racecar feels like, drive a mid-engine. Fiero's, MR-2's, and 914's don't count either! Although I really do like the new MR-2. It's not too bad for what it is.

dude, i just bought my tomahawk yesterday cuz i bribed dodge with 3 million dollars and i paid one million more for the bike and then i had them outfit it with anti-police missles then i had them put on bullet proof tires so i took it out on the road and saw how many cops i could pick up at 120mph. once i had about 90 on my tail i sped up to 280 mph and the cops were like "woah" and i was like "yeah" and then they tried to shoot me but i outran the bullets and then shot my missles at the cops and they all blew up and it was like "cool" but when i slowed down there was one cop left and he shot my camera which had the pictures showing the speedometer so sorry i have no pictures.

Why Busa this Busa that? man here in Puerto Rico they are all over. modified and blahhhhhh. man those are piece of crap of bikes. There are a lot of bikes that can reach 200+mph but u need almost perfect conditions to do so.
MotoGP bikes and SuperBikes does reach the 204+ barrier but those are special bikes and profecional bikers that can make that happen. is kinda dificult to do that on open roads. look at the TT Isle whatever is called. those are road little modified bikes in way long straight. real road straights. and maybe 5 of like 30 bikes will reach the 200mph barrier cause its dificult to reach those speeds in a highly unstable machinery like the bikes.

that ghost rider dude is crazy. I know some dude who was doing wheelies, stoppies, and a lot of other crazy things on the STRIP!!! He's got like 10 APB's out for him. My favirote move is when he's going 110mph and stands up on his seat starts dancing and jumps right back on to his seat. And dude, please, don't call a Busa a pice of crap, the only way that it could be a piece of crap is if you were going fast and crash then it would be a piece of crap after you die and the bike get's totaled.

I have never driven wery fast, but I have been involved in a lot of fast cars. I spent years as a permanemt fixture at countless drag strips, but I was a better wrench than a driver. I have personally pulled 9.20's in a 73 vega GT wagon, with a blown small block and a bottle. That is an average of about 140 top speed. Because of the torque that car had to be bogged down on a launch then ran hot on the top end to get the low E.T.

There is a 96 inch stroker kit for the v rod, and a turbo kit that has been putting the busa's in their place on the drag strip though. I don't know if you call the v rod a harley though. The drivetrane is made by porsche

I wasn't going to gointo this, but sometimes I am just not able to keep my big mouth shut:cool: .Harley had to do something new. For years they have been marketing to an older crowd. If you look at their marketing strategies the traget market is 63 year old men,with at least a BA degree, and an annual income of over $70,000. This is their figures not mine. Now a younger group is flooding the market. HD has to compete. Also new smog regulations are going into effect here in California. It is very hard to meet these new regulations with an air cooled engine. Harley just looked at where the market was going, and adapted. This is what has kept them in business since 1903. The v rod was only meant to enter the younger market, and showcase the new engine. The company is already testing a 117 cid version of the "revolution" engine in the larger touring bikes.

Well, I was on I-85 charlotte area.... So lota cops around there and didnt want to risk getting a speeding ticket or losing my license... and then I dont have a rollcage, whcih I should get one... being a racing enthusiast, There are wreckless racers... and then there are safe wreckless racers... I am estimating about 170+ though with my mods... I have Tanabe Sustec's on all four corners and ST sway bars. So still pretty stable. Ill give you guys an update maybe tonight if my buddy wants to take his mr2 out tonight.


Wreckless not me.......... Motha Fing Crazy...yeah just a little bit. Try putting that supra up on 2 wheels at 110mph...lol

Ummm...we've got a problem here.
You say in your sig that it's an '01.
The car in your avatar is most definetly NOT an '01.
The car in your avatar is pre-facelift.

An '01 looks like this:

yeah.. anywhere past 140 is pretty scary. Make sure you hold the wheel tight... dont want anything bad to happen, even if you got a roll cage.

130 mph in a civic because it revved up at redline and refused to go any faster (this was on a 60mph road)

What mods did you do to your civic to have it running that fast?

Once did 160 mph in a heavily modded beetle (1300 with porsche 3.6litre biturbo) Scary like hell

Did 170 mph in an '86 opel ascona with an opel calibra 2.0 litre engine and the old gearbox geared for slow revving engines @6700+ rpm. (meter would stick at 5500 and started redlining at 4750 due to the old engine)Thing won't corner though.

Managed to drive 135mph in the FC3S so far but haven't really had the car for a long time and haven't taken it to a track yet.
When all goes as planned I'll be mounting the FMIC and BOV this month and be able to increase power to 240 HP.
After that I'll be taking it to a track where I can top out on the speed (nordschleife, nurnburgring)

(67 mph on a mountainbike)

142mph in a Golf GTi Mark V.

122mph in a 1990 Peugeot 205 XS, I thought it was going to take-off !! (this was done on a city bypass, when I turned around to go back I passed a roadside information board which read; "National no speeding day")

160+mph on the back of a ZXR750, when the rider crouched behind the windscreen at around 100, the wind almost took my head off.

I can't drive yet but my dad drove his Z at around 128 to 131 mph.

It's somewhere beetween those two!

Jan 03, 2006, 4:35 PM
that is probably more correct than most people realize. There are a lot of different variables involved in getting an exact speed

Jan 03, 2006, 5:13 PM
Hence why I say 135-150... Its a good estimate

I took the old vette up to 100MPH a few weeks ago. I was coming home from the bar at 2am (I was the bouncer, not a patron, so I was not drinking). I noticed that I had let the speed get up to 85, so I just stuck it for the fun of it. I let out of it pretty quickly after that. This is the first time I have ever done that in this car, and have no desire to do it again. I was just screwing around on an empty freeway. I have to admit the car handled it very well, and it was fun

Are you a German national or a soldier?

I'd assume citizen. Are you allowed to own a car when stationed in Germany? I bet that's a silly question. And why are so many soldiers stationed in Germany anyways? I bet that's another silly question.

Oh yeah, I also wanted to add that I did about 90 the other day on the bike. Very scary, and probably not very smart. It was in the mountians on this very straight, very empty road. The speed limit is 50, but I usually go 60. This time, however, I wondered how fast I could go before I couldn't take anymore. So I put it top gear, sank the throttle and watched the revs climb. 60....70.....80.....90. That's where I couldn't take it. The bike was at 10,000rpm, and the wind was so loud. And I thought to myself "if a car pulls out from one of those side streets, or if there is a new pothole, I'm toast". So I let off the throttle. I'd like to say that I was proud of going that fast, but I'm really not. I'm actually a little disappointed because I put myself in such danger.

I am such a woman...

Yeh but you have special number plates, instead of it saying the area the car is registered in it says the person is in the us army

None of both.

I'm here as an illegal alien at the moment.
I lived in Ireland before, moved to Belgium for some reason (a girl had something to do with it), got unemployed there (great occupation but not really reccomendable) then got a job in the netherlands, where in a far and distant past I was born and found a job in germany to where I recently moved.

Untill all paperwork is done I'm illegal. The FC is already german though. That was imported faster then I am.

When stationed in Germany (I was once before almost 9 years ago) you are allowed to have a car, do get special licence plates though as mopar vmax.

@mopar, yes, you're a woman. :D
I'd love to be able to do 90 mph on a mountainbike at least once in my life. Going to sell the bike though in exchange for parts for the FC
