How fast have you had your V8 upto?
#41
The more I live, the more the reality of the truth appears. I'm very lucky and that's why I play everything safe now. Many guys have died from far less speeds. I threw up what I have done, but not one second that I think about the danger when I went fast. Age is a funny thing. 10years ago, I thought I would never drive the speed limit and obey traffic laws as much as I do now. Heck, I have only been pulled over once in 6years and haven't had a ticket in over 7.

Let's see:
Pontiac Solstice: 154mph
Pontiac Trans Am: 165mph
SRT-10 Ram: 150mph
03 Ram SLT 4.7: 95mph
88 Mustang GT 5.0: 160mph
I would say the safest feeling one was the Solstice. I went over 100 almost daily when I owned that car for a year and a half. I drove over 100 miles a day so I like to get the time driving down to a minimum . The T/a was better until we had 3.73s put in and a Detroit locker. I blew up the rear of the transmission at 150mph next to a Charger SRT-8. I was racing an 08 Mustang GT with I/E/T in the SRT-10 and was pulling on him and I let off at around 150 about 3 cars ahead. The 88 mustang I was riding passenger in. I will never ride passenger again at anywhere near those speeds.

i had may 07 reg cab 4.7 up to 112mph...and it is just pushing way too much air out of thw way. haha. so that was about all she had. but i had my dads 04 mazda rx8 to 147 one night on I-85 in atlanta and it felt twice as smooth as my ram did at 105. haha. dodge didnt build her for top speed.

Maybe sports cars should have their own lane
