i havent ever tried topping my 5.0 out. its scary enough with deer, small animals, children, and banana peels on the road, but with skinnies i dont even think about it.

120 with 5spd and 4.10's. It was pretty much stock then, with bbk LT's, 4.10's, and UD's.

155 on my bike, in 5th i might add. But you cant really compare bikes and cars.

It was all still pretty fun, but i dont really like top speed, its pretty much all about how fast you can get there.

i really don't know.. i guess i need a speedometer that reads past 140! But that needle sure was bouncing hard.. and so was my cousin sitting next to me
^^^ Same Here

I took my '92 5.0 GT to 140mph and its still completely stock... I ran it at 140 for about 2 minutes in a race on the 210 =P.... the guy driven the G35 bitched out. (or just came to his sences, LOL)


Score:
(+10) to American Muscle
(0) to Asain POS
