Re: Top Speed runs in your Z
I bet I had more fun getting to 92 than most everyone else had getting into triple digits......

Re: Top Speed runs in your Z

Re: Top Speed runs in your Z
Honestly, I just don't like high speed. I do love low end torque though....a lot!

Re: Top Speed runs in your Z
112, it's not the speed that worries me, it's the cops, lol. Need a radar detector if I want to go faster around here.

Re: Top Speed runs in your Z
I did a buck-45 in AZ, but quite honestly, i've gone faster in my C6 and my 5-oh mustang. Maybe if I shift into 5th, then I can see what she really has.
I've done 135 in town, but after that the wind noise on the weatherstrip kinda makes me wonder. |

Re: Top Speed runs in your Z
Radar detector is useless at these speeds.
Frank, you were with me when I hit 160.

Re: Top Speed runs in your Z
http://s301.photobucket.com/user/kee...st005.mp4.html Mines no match for Kevin but much better than 92. No jack stands either. Mine was really on the road an I really video taped it. And anybody that takes their car up to that speed and says they were'nt just a little scared is either a liar or crazy. And people that crazy usually don't live very long.
