122mph (Acording to gps) on a Back country road where I knew for a fact there was no law enforcement around, for about 3 minutes, Right after I got the SC. I could feel the tires getting loose so I let off. I felt like if the tires were a touch stronger I could have done a little faster.
On a trip to KC I averaged 97 according to the GPS, I was actually behind a Semi the whole way had my radar/laser detector on, listening to the CB. Got to KC in record timing. When I called my wife she freaked out threatened to castrate me if I ever pulled a stunt like that again.
The springfield guys can appreciate this, Springfield to KC in 1 hour 42 minutes.

The Ram... I ran it up to 100mph but not for a long time, just a quick burst. I did drive at 90mph for about 150miles. Truck was solid. No fluffyness in the suspension at all. Anything faster is when the truck will start to bounce around.
I have been clocked in my Supercharged Cobra at 166mph.
I have been clocked on my Turbocharged RX-1 at 157mph
You think 150mph is fast in a car. Try it on a snowmobile! Bikes are smooth, snowmobiles aren't.
I fell off my bike at 137mph back in 2001. No broken bones, no stitches. Lots of rash and torn up clothing. Bike was in hundreds of pieces. Since then, I call it my warning and I play the safe side of life. I'm gettin old....lol

Ram=90ish once or twice, felt solid but I slowed down cause i don't need another ticket
98 wrangler 4.0 i6= 105mph... one time and never again, you gotta have a death wish to take one of those that fast.
97 eclipse= 135mph, felt safer then the wrangler.
89mustang 5.0 GT= 155mph, not safe not safe not safe
04 GSXR 1000= 150ish, I only looked down once, funny story though, very solid at speed.
02 harley sportster 883= 110mph, 1.5x scarier than the GSXR 1 at 150.
