Default Fastest you've driven..

Whats the fastest you've driven your 6er? Highway/track? Anyone get caught? Im bored so I thought i'd ask. Last time I pushed mine I had about 113 but that was before my UD pullies. Not much performance parts on mine though...

Right when I got mine I had it up to 180-ish km (112.5mph) on the highway but I was comming up to a bend that was nitorious for cops so I slowed right down. Untill I get mine programmed thats about as fast as Ill go...and even the well see.

100, state cops patrol the freeways here a lot...so there's only like a little strip where I can let loose.

I had mine up to 120 which is where I can't tell how much faster I am going anymore and I was still picking up a little speed after that.

I went 115 ( then the governor hit ) and i was in 4th gear at 5100 RPM and i still had 5th gear left... so i need to get that governor removed so i can go even faster...

and i have XRS 9700CS Cobra Radar Detector ($169 at CarToys.com)

I've taken mine up to 120 or where ever the governor kicks in at. When I was living in Philly I would get off work at about 1am and there wouldn't be any cops on the highway and I would fly all the way home.

well my speedometer doesnt work anymore... but i got clocked at 110 on the NJTP and ticketed... and i was following my friends corvette over a bridge and i was right along side of him and he said we were going 130... i think when your speedometer goes your governor doesnt work, because it doesnt know how fast your going....
