My old 97 Z28 396 LT1. Not as fast as a lot of these built up 5th gens these days. But it only started at 285 HP stock.

Hell, people: "Fastest car" is boring without those top speed numbers! How FAST did you drive that fastest car?!?!?
Mine won't take anybody's breath away... but I have been airborne at 139 MPH in a Merkur XR4Ti (an unexpected rise in the road), lived to tell about it: been clocked at 135 MPH by the CHP in my Cutlass (went to jail for that one); Maintained a steady 140 MPH in an Audi on the Autobahn while all of my passengers slept; and done 139 on a Ninja.... yes, of course I SHOULD have been wearing a helmet and pants, but, hey, I was young... I've driven a few faster cars, but haven't run the needle up that high... so they don't count. |

Who knows? Many cars in the 60s had speedometers that only went to 120 mph, but could go way faster.

Had a '69 Road Runner... Speedometer only went up to 120, but according to the tach, I had it up to 150mph. Scared the crap out of me, as well it should have, considering the brakes those things had!

Drove, or ridden in..
I've been in an original AC Cobra (289), a twin turbo German Carrera, an original 69 Z28 (302). I had my 120 MPH speedo pegged on Monterrey Highway in my 72 Chevelle..

I didn't get to drive it, but Mark Heffington (owner of Hypertech) gave me a ride in his Lingenfelter twin turbo C5 Corvette years ago. That thing was just stupidly fast - and from the passenger seat it only feels moreso. At the time I compared it to the downslope of a rollercoaster but straight forward, that same gut-in-your-throat feeling. Totally awesome.
oh hey I think that's it in the foreground http://www.hypertech-inc.com/Mark.aspx Fastest I've ever driven is my cammed '99 Trans Am. I miss that car. Was working for Comp Cams at the time and just about exhausted their catalog on that thing. |
