Whats your top speed?

Just wondering how fast you guys have gotten your ludes up to? I have a stock 91 and have gotten it up to 120-125. It was on a LLLLOOOOONNGGGGG back road.

I got up to 130 on the 101 freeway a couple of times. I am sure I can go faster because I still have room to rev.

Had it up too 136 but the roads around here are really windy and curvy and really aren't long enough to do runs like that so... but I know I had more just haven't found the right road yet, maybe I-95 this summer when I drive to Myrtle beach.

I've only gotten her up to 120 on I4, but I had to slow because of the damn state troopers. She will max out one day, I will make her. I like pushing the limits once in awhile!

So far, only 120 a couple times. I haven't had enought road, and passangers that would let me go any higher without choking me afterwards.

140 mph once and then I realized if I hit something in the road that blew a tire I'd be dead so that was the last time for that. I did hit about 125mph the other night messing with a fried at work, be that was the first time in a few months.

Does it really matter...?? Most 4th and 5th gens with VTEC motors should be within 5-10mph.. depending on tire size and wind..

110 on rt. 130 in jersey, NVTECJ, about 135, 140 on 295, give or take a few due to bigger rims and smaller tires.
