Even if he is telling the truth, why the hell would you go that fast in a fox?

ive bottomed out my speedo which reads 150.
i think 150 was as fast as it got cause after it hit 150 it didnt feel like i got going any faster.
only got to do that once then a balancer or something fell off my driveshaft.
so now after 110 the car shakes like crazy cause of that damn driveshaft.
and my car was stock when i did that, but who knows, my speedo couldve been off for all i know.

just curious of the fastest everybody has been in their 5.0, ive burried my 140mph guage racing a sti and nsx. my friend in his sti said we were going around 160-170... but i was pretty close to maxing out.
Not in a stock 5.0 or a mild modded one...around 145 mph was top speed on later model foxes......heck I usually run out of NADS and road when I get to 130mph..which is as fast as I've taken my 92 and it's not my fastest one but it's the fastest I dare go on the street........I'm not a fan of super high speeds on a highway even if it is deserted
