105-110mph in a Ford Escort Wagon [testing against my buddies Mazda B-series' to see what the governor was.....never again]
90ish in the FB, though it drives straight as an arrow, I'd like to rebuild the front end and get the engine tuned better before I subject it to 4th gear for that long under WOT.
last but not least, so scared I couldn't look at the speedo in a 2001 Mach 1 Mustang, was riding passenger so I was trying to keep my eyes on the road.

My first car: 1983 280zx 2+2 GL Automatic(Aprox weight - 3,750) Me in the passenger seat (No license) and my friend driving. Maxed out the speedo at 85 and had our friend in his 240sx pace us on a long open freeway. And it took a LONG time to get there and the car was shaking a bit but we managed 125MPH. lol.
I never took the rx7 past 90MPH. It was the first drive and I didnt want to push it too hard. lol.

155mph on my Aprilia. Absolutely the most insanely BORING thing I've ever done on a bike/car. 155 feels exactly like 30mph, except there is more wind/noise and the scenery moves by faster. You aren't accelerating fast at that point and you are basically just sitting still. LAME, I'll stick to track days.
130-ish in my Mom's Boyfriend's Shelby GT500. Yes it had WAY more to give but it wasn't mine, and that was noticed after looking down at the speedo after a spirited free-way entrance. Car was SO composed I would have swore to God I was going about 80-90. Then I saw the speedo and gasped.

The coupes with 5 speed are much faster. I took the 2+2 to the drag strip and did 4 18second flat passes. I took my 82 5 speed coupe this year and my best was just barely over 16 flat. Both were pretty much stock except for bigger coil and no emissions equipment. I would guess that with a long enough strait the coupe would be able to get to 140 or so.

I love mine. The rx7 is great but when you want the feeling of torque the 280zx is ready to slam you in to the seat. lol. I've got a turbo motor in the works for it and I cant wait to drop it in. I'm going for 300whp. Thats about 100 over stock turbo. Should be a blast.

120mph in the mustang....but it was at stock ride height then and the air likes to get under a foxbody...so it felt like I was floating, or about to take flight, so I backed off...lol

Ah what the heck I'll throw mine in the ring,
First high speed sprint was with my DAD in a 1972 Dodge Charger with a 318 auto, we did 110mph on hwy 169 in Tulsa, Ok. I was 6, god I miss that car.
Next was again with Dad, on his 82' Kawasaki KZ650 CRS 125mph on I 244 in Tulsa this was in about 1997 I was 9. That bike could scream.
Next major event was later down the road, 2002 rolls around we move to Hawaii I do 100mph down the Kalapana hwy with my Dad him on his new 02 Honda Shadow 750 A.C.E. me on my new 250 Rebel.
Next was after my buddy got his 1987 BMW 325es we did 130 down the Kalapana hwy.
6 months later he poped the head gasket and motor over heated, this car will soon
be powered by a 13b rew. This freind later also purchased (and blew the trans in) a 2004 Subaru Impreza STI.
Next I got my first car, 1987 Toyota Celica GT, did 115mph on the panaewa stretch tward Hilo then the speedlimiter kicked in, damn limiter.
Next did 125mph in a friends 2007 Civic.
Later on rode along with the friend in the STI did 160mph on the stretch (fastest I've ever been).
After this my celica got totaled and I bought the Gmc listed in my sig, left the island and got the fb to get my fast car back and have the truck as a heavy hauler.
Earlier this year had t chase an ambulace to Las Cruses did 90mph in my Gmc.
fastest Ive been in the FB to date is a short sprint at 90mph needs front end work before I'll try any higher, that's my most interesting ones.
