I kind of doubt that was done using only 1mile that would make your car is faster then a C6 vette. I would say atleast 1.25mile.

I can hit over a hundred in a 1/4. When it stops raining I will do it again with the Superchips. It will time for speed but not sure if it will go to 160.

I read the first question wrong. I cam from a light from dead stop and punched it. I was on the beginning of a freeway in South Seattle. We used it for drag racing for years when I had my '85 Shelby Charger Turbo. That was a fun car and in corners would do circles around my new '06. now if I can make it to 100 in a 1/4 that leaves 3/4 of a mile to get another 60mph... Who knows I was looking at distance or time but I think it was about one mile. Hopefuly this weekend it will be clear with no rain and I will bring my Superchips and go the distance and I will record the results. I think that the Superchips also can show speed and I am going to see if I can get her closer to 170. There is plenty of room at this freeway to do so and I just haul b&lls untill I pull off the freeway. They always catch you because you slow down!!!!!!

Streatr,

I know on my 07 with evic, if I hold down the music and compass buttons on my steering wheel it will chang the evic setting that you can scroll through, one setting is a 0-60 time and the other with a large didgital speedo. It used to have a top speed in the upper right hand corner. I ht 135 and now it's gone. I don't know if you have that option but it might be fun/interesting for you to play with.

Cool to see the video of that speed, but I don't know if I would want to be holding a camera phone and trying to drive that fast.


Not trying to hijack this. Just passing info:
Texas Crewd--- the Top Speed indicator is still there. Just get back to the digital speedo and changeyour odometer to trip B.
