I only drive the speed limit...officer friendly are you reading this, I did not race that car. That depends on your definition of RACING.

145 with a lot left to go. I don't think I'll be taking it past 160 or so because I don;t believe the magnum's aerodynamics are really well suited for a higher speed.

When I had my R/T I maxed it out a number of times. (128 hits the limiter on the R/T).

Gawd I am slow!
105 when new last fall, wife won't let me drive on the great open road any more!
MNRT ---- 145?
SRT8 has no limiter? WOW
Want to try it at the max, but I need to sneak away with it.

As stated above, you can set the speed limiter to 200 MPH with Flashpaq if you want. I've read of a 300C with Hemi doing 170 MPH + and basically the same engine. Magnum is a couple hundered pounds heavier.

For now it is 128 MPH, as soon as I get better tires, I will raise the speed limiter up with my Flashpaq.

Car should do at least 150 MPH.
