What
is the fastest you've ever driven in a street-legal car on a road? (not including Nascar
or other similar races where cars are built to drive fast)i dont drive, but the
fastest i've ever gone with friends, is maybe 90. i'm really afraid to be in
fast cars no matter who is driving

I've gotten up to 100
miles once but that was only to get around another vehicle on an old road. I usually don't
drive fast tho.

Hi, my name is Brad and Im a 20 year old guy
from Sydney Australia. I must say that the fastest I have ever driven in a car was whilst
I was over in New Zealand visiting my girlfriend. I found that NZ roads are very easy to
speed on and that there weren't many police patrolling the roads. Considering that most of
my travelling was done in the country side, I was able to reach speeds to in excess of
160km/h. I would never dare reach such speeds in Australia, as the amount of police is
probably more. Anyway I hope that answers your question and I am glad to assist you in
todays questions.

I have only been about 90 -95MPH in a car on
the road, but have driven a snowmobile about 105 MPH down a hard pack snow road, and about
115 on a motorcycle.

About 90-95 miles an hour in a 55 speed zone
in Wyoming. I of course crossed paths with the one state trooper in a 100 mile radius and
promptly got a $172 ticket

I once looked down at my speedometer
and almost died because I was going almost 90 miles per hour in a 55 zone. I couldn't even
believe my car could go that fast. It was a long,
boring highway and it was at night with almost no other cars on the road. It surely wasn't
intentional...though I don't think that
excuse flies with the state troopers.

In some of the emptier parts of the plains
states, I've driven about ninety on the freeways.

120 or so, i believe - just to see if my car
would do it. it did, but it sounded like suicide, so i got there then backed down. It was
kind of scary, actually.

I'd say....120. I just had to know if the
car went up to those last little numbers on the MPH dial!

I used to have an old 1984 Chrysler
New Yorker that would really shake if you got near
70mph, but I've probably gotten up to 90mph in another car.

Only about 110kpm since I've just started
driving, but I have been in cars going a lot faster than that.

110 MPH while racing a blazer

When I was about 19 or 20 I was working for
an inventory company. We'd ride out to department stores all over New England
and...count stuff. One time they were stuck for drivers (you're not considered a 'driver'
unless you've seen that training video). Being one of the few people on the van who wasn't
an ex-con or DUI dude I was chosen. 15 people in a passenger van. Odometer pegged
past 115. It was 2am and no traffic or cops, just 15 junkies and cons scared
shitless...memories

I _think_ I was going 80 or 90 in a 75 once,
before I caught myself. But a cop passed me, and he was going faster. That's how fast
traffic was.
Karen, 21

90 mph

85 mph, I think.

I had a '79 Honda Prelude that I got for
$500. It was a real piece of junk. The speedometer only went up to 85mph, but I'm
sure I got it up to 100. Never ran the same, though.
A-Dog, 18

85 mph on the interstate

I have no idea. I've been driven at speeds I
did not appreciate AT ALL. As I driver I've probably never exceeded 70 mph.

I've personally driven to 110, when
the car cut out...it was an Oldsmobile Aurora, speedometer goes to 140 and i wanted to see
if it actually would, but it cut out at 110.
Mandi, 16

Somewhat like 120 mph. and I didn't get
caught!

Once on a long empty bit of freeway, I
decided to find out how fast my Ford Taurus could go. I made it up to 'bout 120 before the
rev limiter kicked in and I slowed down to a normal speed. I did this all in less than one
minute, 'cause I don't want to go to jail.

In the
70's, I was into building 396 cu in big blocks, changing the gear ratios of the
transmission and rearend...all in a stock Chevy Caprice...heavy car. In Arkansas, there is
plenty of room to move freely at high speeds where I tested my cars at the top end... I
ususally topped out at about 180mph.

About 90 on the highway - but that was in my
younger and much crazier days.

When Mick, Mick
with your lips so thick got back on stage with the corpse, Bill Wyman. I think It's time
for the Rolling Stones and Rod Stewart to give it a rest.
