hit 130 this morning, I usually punch it to 120 or so at some point just about every time I drive it, these cars handle really well at those speeds especially in turns, I have taken turns at speed on the interstate where I know for a fact I would be dead if I was driving my old 74 corvette.

though I am not proud of it, I did engage in the stupidity of going 164mph on a VERY long stretch of interstate highway against my brother in his G37, verified by the GPS in my car

Hit 140, then shut it down. And just the one time. There's no need to be going that fast. Plus, I like the quick acceleration more than the top speed. Did this on the 417 South Bound, for all the Orlando boys. Completely empty about mid morning, no cars for miles.

Usually, if it's a good stretch, I may accelerate to 100 or so, but I try to keep it about 70 when traffic's moving good. Can't afford tickets these days. I've got a CDL and don't wanna lose my job.

lol actually he did, we honked off at about 30mph, there was literally not a single car near us on a four lane highway for about 5 miles, and I held him off by about two cars up to about 130mph, then he started creeping on me, by the time we hit ~155, we were side by side, and when I hit 164mph I capped, he went all the way up to 170mph and was about a 1-1.5 cars in front and pulling, those G37's are FAST, the gearing is made for speed rather than acceleration I guess lol

124 in my Fox according to the TomTom. Fastest I've gone is just over 170 in my old Spirit R/T. Felt being an idiot for a night on I59 on the out skirts of Houston. Have a video but you can't read the GPS screen well enough to get the speed.
