Ive hit about 130 - 140 mph. It was bad cause we were going to vegas and a beautiful black 911 porsche wizzes by me like nothing and i was going 80mph! Then he slows down right next to me and steps on the gas again. Then my bro's like "Dude he wants to race you." I said "Yeah Right! THat guy'll smoke me." So the guy slows down again and gets right next to me and then he gives me the hand signal like saying "Go! Go! Go!" SO I step on it. We rolled from 80. I was even for like 4 secs. till he started passing me. I hit all that it can go and he was still going further and further. HE must of been hittin like 170mph. It was P.I.M.P.

Good idea to do it by yourself with no other cars around. Its unlikely anything will happen, but don't roll those dice on another person's life.

Yeah, I find passengers distracting, so I have to drive slower and safer. Isn't it amazing that your friends like to push your buttons just when you're driving? Isn't that nice - just when you have their lives in your hands - best time to annoy ya.

Oh, and I think 115 or so in an MR2 Spyder - top down. Just for a sec. No passenger.

How does the tranny limit it?

I don't see how a tranny would limit the top speed. I think everyone here who reaches top speed is limited by horsepower only. They are no where near redline when they get to 145MPH in their GTS's.

because the transmission controls the power to the wheels.

once you spin the gear to it's maximum potential, it's finished.

You can't go over a certain speed in first gear, same thing applies to 5th gear

You mean redline? Where is redline in sixth gear? 160MPH? Higher? If not, you could put on oversized tires & get more. Automatic maybe higher as well.

rofl Imagine you were in your friends car and he started driving at 200mph. LOL. You'd be like, slow it down a fucking bit or what? rofl

Things would probably be a little bit unstable at 215mph. Put your arm out the window and you could take off.

I don't make a good passenger. I would drive that speed if I could, but I would never get in a car with someone else driving that speed, that would be stupid. laughsilly

Fastest I have tried to go was 120, and that was from 80-120 in top gear, so it took a while.

Havn't actually tried to hit top speed since I don't have enough room to do it with.
