Me, being just 16 with no license yet, I have only ridden with my dad going about 90. Mom didn't even like that.

That is nothing though, compared to riding in my dad's Charger R/T at a freeway onramp, going from 25mph to 70mph in 2.5 seconds. Talk about a G-Force!

: So how fast have you guys ever gotten in a car? (mad max related because when he hits the supercharger he flys!)

: I just went the fastest I have ever been last night. 145....wew, was it a rush. Talk about tunnel vision.

The fastest I've ever done was an amazing 400 mph, considering that I didn't have a license at the time. Come to think of it, I didn't even have a car or any other vehicle. Oh yeah, now I remember, it was a dream I had. Then I and the_Don made race cars out of our own poop.

I had an XF Falcon wich I fitted a 351 clevo and a VN commodore T5 5speed with a 2.77 diff ratio I had no problems pulling it back to third gear at 200 and smacking the accelerator to the floor, and it is quite funny at this speed when you grab third and the guy in the passenger seat poops as he thought you were going back to 4th, and when he realizes your grabing third all he can do is hang on, as the force is incredible.

---about nine years ago,we were headed to the creek,to go swimming..the gas was a little low,so we stopped for gas and munchies..(at this time,i am driving my 73 amx javelin-BUILT)...so,as we come out the door with the munchies,a 71 javelin stops,looks at my car,starts smoking the tires,and hauls ass to the left(we are at a -t- intersection)..now i`m ready,but the wifes still in the store..so i was HOT!!..while i`m waiting for her,guy on a ninja motorcycle slows,stops,looks over at my car,and starts laying a serious patch...finally she comes out,(theres five of us in the car-three friends,and the wife and me)looks at me,looks at him,and says.." lets get him!!" we proceed to jump in,leaving my BRAND NEW SHADES on the roof,fire it up,and start chasing the biker guy...this is a loooong road,so i cranked it all the way up,and we were doing 160,about 125 around the curves,with one of the passengers screaming like he had been shot" SLOW DOWN"( i hate that)..so we CATCH the biker guy,he`s laying out fLAT on his bike,he`s moving...but i`m all over this guy,like the scene where the toecutter gets chased by max..i am BOUNCING THE FRONT END(GAS IT) right on the guys tailite..kept going for another mile,this was GREAT..so,we are finally reaching the end of this road..we slow down ,the biker slows down.at the stop sign,the biker looks back,shakes his head,and gives me a thumbs up,and takes off to the right..i`m bragging hardcore about how great my car is,go to turn left,and promptly run out of gas--yeah ,GAS-i was too busy watching traffic,and did`nt get any gas at the store...so,i get out,look down the road we just flew along,and start thinking about how long it`s gonna take me to walk back to that gas station.."damn,that sun is bright!" (light sensitive eyes).and thats when i realize that my brand new shades were on TOP of the car,when we left the store...................i have been much faster,but this was the fastest for me as the driver...and yes,there WAS five people in the car,and i bet they STILL remember that race...i sure do miss my amx...Rob

When it comes to riving i am way to paranoid about being caught speeding, but once i was on a new freeway

and got my 88' Prelude Si up to about 100. The ride was soo smooth. Maybe one day i will get

th balls to really punch it. I figure it could do every bit of what the 140mph speedo says.

248 KPH (155 MPH) in my ex-cruiser as clocked by the Ontario Provincial Police 2 years ago. The car has a few more 'hard' miles on it so it's

time for a rebuild.

: There's nothing like low fly-bys, the speed is wicked.

I don't know what my airspeed was, but on trip home

from getting my license, I buzzed the field it was a rush.

I was doing easily doing 130 plus in a Cessna 150.

A Cessna 150 is the Ford Escort of the skies.

Like someone else mentioned, I also never owned

a really powerful car, but I have owned many motorcycles.

My friend and I raced once on the Interstate. He said

we were up to 120, but that could be false because

my speedometer didn't work..........it still doesn't. The

wind sheer is tremendous, your body just gets knocked

around as you try to hold on. Its insane.
