What is the fastest you've ever driven (in a car on ground!), what vehicle? Pro racing drivers don't count!

I once did 78 in a Chevette going down hill. Never again...
Having driven a Chevette on a few occasions, yes, I can agree with “Never again!”

Too fast to want to admit. Young and stupid a long time ago.

Heres a cool one of my 93 bronco (back in 1995).

Cruise control was broken and we had to drive to Canada so I just floored it the entire time. After all, Canadian cops aren't real cops so it didn't matter, right?

I'm a sheriff's deputy with lots of highway miles in my county. My first patrol vehicle was 2011 Dodge Charger. I hit the 155 governed top speed a few times running to major emergencies that were on the other end of the county. It was a bit scary because the lightbar on top really threw off the aerodynamics. I eventually learned 135ish was the sweet spot between speed and handling (from the lightbar wind resistance).

When I think about some of the crazy shit we did in my younger years I am amazed that I am still here!
And to think, our kids are out there doing all that same stuff!

My very first car was a 1980 2 dr Chevette. Silver, 4 speed. I put a Jensen stereo, equalizer and some pioneer speakers in that baby!

Thing that was nice about those is you could ask girls if they wanted a ride in your 'vette. Then the joke was on them. Or. Maybe it was on the both of you.

Yep! I called her the Silver Bullet! Unfortunately that was her undoing! Had 2 girls in there cruising after school one day, paying attention to the girls and not the road! Rear ended another car!:(

165 on my VFR (on a long downhill, it wouldn't otherwise do that)
130 on my SV (at Road Atlanta, while getting passed like I was standing still by liter bikes)
125 in my Integra
~113 in a Ford Contour SE (electronically limited)
Sadly, I never tested my modified BMW 335i before I sold it. :(

That's an epic launch!

LOL, my Miata ran 12.7's and trapped 115-117 MPH, daily driven. It could not get out of the hole to save its life... 2.2 60 ft times.
