    So what's the fastest speed you've ever driven on a public road?
    In what car? In what country?

    ---

    180kph / 110 mph : rented turbo diesel Volvo S50 (France)

    160kph / 100 mph : in my little Pug 306 (Australia)

    180kph/110mph on a Honda VF1000F motorbike :D - That was back in New Zealand where I used to live.
    Those were the days when I was young and stupid :rolleyes:

    On long journeys here in the UK I average about 90mph on the M/ways ..... never going over 100mph. - that's in a Saab 900SE (2L).

    A friend of mine has never been over 80kph - she's from Hong Kong and can't handle the "long" roads in Australia.

    Hong Kong? But it's all busy there.

    That was while I was in some small city, I'm terrified of speed!:eek:

    Isn't this topic out there already?

    145 MPH on both a motorcycle and a car.

    The white lines connect when ya look down on the motorcycle.

    When you change lanes in a car at 145 the first time, you may move two lanes, things happen fast at that speed.

    At 145 the car I was racing was pullin away from me. The guy driving the other car owned the car I was in and we were doing a test of his new car.

    His new car blew up, nothing dramatic. The bottom end went south and it lost power, made terrible noises and smoked. I pulled over, he got in my car, we abandoned the broken car and left.

    He had brought the car about 45 minutes before. It was cool to buy a car, blow it up and then say, oh well, not good enough and junk it.

    Thank goodness he had money. I couldn't afford to do that. :p

    Lol, that sucks, I definitely couldn't afford to do that. :eek:

    145mph is fast, fastest I've done is 120 in my Stealth (so far...). Did 115 in a Neon, talk about sketchy!
