HOW FAST have you gone in a CAR? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 68/100. hiccup (3720)   ranked 5 out of 310 in driving3 months ago

Some time back I drove a car at 100 MPH (160KmPH)I was on a good road, I had a good car, light was right, traffic was OK.

A cop pulls me over and I get a ticket,even the COP said all was OK, but he had a slow night and needed some ticket to show the Boss.

Near the same time I was a passenger of a Car that did 125MPH (200KmPH).
Same story but no COP this time.

Both were great rides, very safe, and no fear, one could say a perfect drive.

Now how it is Ill have to pay if I want that speed,Ill need to go to a track and hire a car that can do that speed or faster.

Any stories comming back at me here, Im sure you have one to tell em.

Have you tried go karting? I did a few months ago and it was awesome! I didn't know how fast I went though but it seemed really fast to me! Anyway, when I drive I usually keep my speed somewhere between 40-60kmp, which is actually a bit slow. I find that when I go faster, I get scared of losing control of the car.:( The fastest I've gone is 100 kmp when there wasn't any traffic and the road was slightly downhill.

Hiya hiccup, I was with a friend that had just gotten a nissan 360 we too were on a long stretch of road and he asked if I like to go fast, he got it up to 125, it was so fun, no cops or any other cars for that fact so it was all good, but not something I would tell my kids about, hehe

I did 120 on the highway in a car and 100 in a truck on a back road. Eventhough speed kill it was fun and I had no police near so I didn't get a ticket and it gave me a rush! Plus I would rather do a fast drive then a fast drug lol

I was bought a track day once as a gift, which is probably when I've travelled fastest in a car. I wasn't allowed to drive it then though, which was a bit of a bummer.

When I was young and had money to burn, I had a whole series of sporty cars and a very heavy right foot. there was a particular stretch that I had to pass every day on my way to work. It was a stretch of hill, going off a roundabout. Each morning I used to challenge myself to see if I could hit 100mph before I reached the top.

It was a mile and a half from our farm to the Little Red Schoolhouse, and I swear to this day, it was uphill both ways! Once, after school, when I was 10 and my sister was 8, a neighbor stopped his car to give us a ride home. Mr. Latta was the owner of the local feed-mill, and he had a brand new car, We climbed into the back seat. The car smelled like fresh paint and new leather. Mr. Latta asked if we wanted to go really fast? We said "yes!" Mr Latta stepped on the gas peddle and I could see the Speedometer needle go up. The hand went higher and higher.I had never been going this fast before! As we topped Jim Lockhart's hill we were going 50 Miles an Hour!

I can drive up to 120Km/h. How I wish I can drive as fast as you. But my car is middle range car and it's kinda old. Sigh.

I have drove my car at 120 km per hour speed, but is not advisiable to drive at high speed as it is equally risky and dangerous to drive.

Back about 6 years ago now I had a Mustang. I had just gotten it and I loved that car to pieces. It was red and shiny and new...and fast.
My boyfriend (now husband) made me really angry one night. He had come up to my work, so we had driven separate. I tore off out to the highway to go home. I got up to 117 mph before I had to slow down and get off the highway. I had never driven that fast before and I haven't since.

I made exactly two payments on that car before a news crew blew through a red light and crashed into the passenger side of my car. I was so mad I couldn't even speak. It was totaled and I replaced it with a Grand Am. I hated the Grand Am but the payments were cheaper and I was newly divorced so I was on my own to pay for it. sad

The fastest speed in a car 135mph. It was a long time ago back in the age of muscle cars. Of course I'm older now and have more sense. The fastest speed in a truck (tractor/trailer) was over 125mph. Again when I was younger. I have thought about driving on the autobaun in Europe, that would be great, no speed limits.

Its silly you and I have driven cars over 100MPH (160KmPH)
We drove on roads as they were 40 years ago, no mags, plain rubber ply tires with tubes.

The you look today, the roads, tyres, mags, everything that opens and shuts to make a car SAFE and what do they do Fall off the ROAD at 60kph, and kill them selves.

Are our roads,cars safer I dont think so.

All the cars are plastic, no protection, give me an OLD car any day over the modern new ones.
