140. And that was before the engine swap

I can get to 140 a helluva lot faster now, but until I get that 951 tranny, my ratio's are holding my car back After the tranny upgrade, the car will be able to go 180+ at redline (calculated). I dare not take that on public roads.

LT1 944

S2000: 145mph
CBR600RR: Slightly higher than 134mph (trap speed in quarter mile at drag strip was 134, kept going for a bit)
Civic: 120mph-ish on the long straight at VIR (all she would give in 5th gear, lol)

RX-7 I was riding in with an instructor at VIR hit ~160mph (monster car, completely built with single turbo, ~400rwhp, stripped interior with cage, etc). I wasn't driving though

Fastest verified was 164 on the GPS back 6 or so years ago. LT1 Z28, was mildly modded at the time. Might have gone faster than that at one time or another, but never had a GPS or other reliable measuring device with me.

I wouldn't say that...although the vast majority of TWWers are dumb and irresponsible when it comes to driving fast. But a few TWWers keep it on track.

fastest I've driven:

135+ mph at VIR
130? mph at Rockingham
almost 140 mph at Roebling Rd.

250km/h on the autobahn

Fastest I've ridden in a car:

160ish

I've ridden @ 176 in a c4 vette ... on the digi speedo so i don't know how accurate that is but thats what it said.

and i think I've driven faster in a C5r (not factory sponsored but dealership owned & raced)... it only had a tach and i have no idea of the gear ratios + i'm sure things seem faster when you're in an aluminum interior w/ nothing else but a shifter a tach some toggle switches etc. and the noise... ohh i loved the noise...

Tuite and i built one that would go about 35-40mph. i guess it wasn't technically a lawnmower anymore, we removed the deck and put on a horizontal shaft engine from an old generator. the chassis was all stock though except for cutting down the seat mount and steering column. it was a blast to ride around the parking lot at university house.

Fastest overall was 105 on the (then-new) I-85 bypass in the Mark VIII...haven't had the Marauder much above 90.

Fastest in the last month? I'm not even sure if I've hit 80 mph in the past month. Speeding ticket at the end of April has turned me into a "set cruise at 72" kind of driver.
