Re: How fast have you been in your w-body?

I was tuning on a back road here in Central PA and hit 142mph I think. Fastest I have probably ever driven.

And that was just a couple months ago. So the car probably had 180k+ miles on it. :D

yea i also hit ~141-142mph the other weekend on an flat open-stretch freeway within a few seconds and hen i looked at my HUD i quickly let off the throttle and coasted down as the only worries i had were deer and worn tires...

Re: How fast have you been in your w-body?

126 and gov. kicked on. I tried, but it would not let me. Had plenty to go. Is what I read earlier true? A PCM will allow 150. I was guessing 140 with what I had left, but that was just a guess. I need better tires before I do though.

150+ on 2 different occasions...will I do it a third time...UMM...NO...car is getting too old to handle those speeds safely...now 125...yeah it handles that fine...above 130 and it starts to get a little on the scary side:th_angry2:

Ironically I still have yet to beat that in a Patrol Car :eek: although I have hit 140 in one and a W-body in fact (06 Impalla):th_winking:

I hit 112 with the GT before the speed limitor kicked in and backed me down to 107. Definitely had more petal. Removed speed limitor and hit 128.

i know he said he hit 140 in one that was an impala, but it sounded as though that wasn't his usual car.... I could have misread though
