Default Re: So.... how fast have you driven on the street?

120 mph on Route 1 Trevose/Pendell in a '71 Nova, 250 straight 6, powerglide and 3.08 gear in an open rear; once, and only once! I think it took about 1.5miles to get up to that speed (partially down hill). The speedo was bouncing all over the place, and the car was light in the front and tough to manage. I pegged it, mission accomplished - never again, drag strip only....
