Default Re: WHAT'S YOUR TOP SPEED?

For a long time, the fastest that I've ever been was 110. That was when I was 16 and my Dad let me drive his '68 Camaro from Greenville IL up to Ontario Canada for a youth church camp. It was on some interstate highway up at the top of Indiana, I was cruising along side of a Corvette. We did it for quite a few miles.

Then a couple of years back I took our '01 Corvette up to 145. Since I was on a interstate highway, I was scared to go any faster then that... you just never know when somebody will pull out in front of you. I only got up to that speed and then slowed back down to 80 pretty quickly.

In the Grand National I am guessing (speedo goes to 85 mph)around 100-110 mph +/-. In a 1986 Caprice (old Audubon Twp police car) 120 mph +/-.
