70mph. Anything more is asking for trouble on the road.

i must admit i do drive sensibly now, but it was when i got my first valver and just couldnt resist

When i got my first car (1000cc mini) i drove everywhere with my foot welded to the floor

 calmed down a bit but did learn alot , like how to heel n toe , and take on cars much larger and faster than your own

like neaty tho ive calmed ALOT since back then

erm.... the fastest ive been... well guess thats what ever the boeing 747 does when its at full chat... lol...

other than that on the land err...

about 180 on my zx9r only for a second to see what it would do.. and too fast for me!!

did 155 im me mates old bmw m3 evo after dropping him off at airport... (apparently it would have gone faster if derestricted or something?)

and fastest vw is the vr6 track hack... had 142 showing on the clock.. but it doesnt feel safe at all...

all of the above were on a private runway... hehe

About 120 in my 8v

wouldn't go any faster than that tbh, unless on a track or something.

Straight top speed runs are boring though, bring on the little twistys I say!
