    ive been to where my car said 143 once. but i dont normally go nearly that fast. that was my (i wonder how high i can get moment) but at the same time i'm pretty sure the speedometer was off when that high. probably really going like 120? only mod i had at the time was pcm/intake. it wasn't scary till i started slowing down.

    Yeah the slowing down is the scary part, best idea is not to use brakes and let it slow by itself. I was doing this and had to hit the breaks because a turn was coming and hit a wet spot and almost died. lol

    Mine was in my old chevelle with drums all the way around. If I had a disc conversion, it probably wouldn't have been as bad, but still. The scariest part was the light poles looked like one big wall.
