What’s the fastest you’ve driven?

[Roy68]

Do you guys think if it goes wrong at such high speed that the human mind can proceed the thought of “ this is bad, I’m gonna die !?”

Or do you think the mind glitches and it’s over ?

The couple I saw coming were definitely like this

130ish in a car, 176, ZX11, my cousins bike and I had no business going over 100 for that matter, but one crack of the throttle got ya 100 right now!

I remember seeing a road sign way out, I passed it instantly and luckily realized I was going way to fast, coasted down to normal speeds, rode back and that convinced me never to buy a motorcycle!

I’m in the ~1500 club as well as the .98 in a subsonic a/c club. The .98 was the scariest as you could just feel that you were a millisecond away from a smoking hole.

I hit 180k on my brothers honda 900 the one and only time I rode it. Also remember "winding out "my 1979 Ford F250 at 101 mph . I was 18 on the Alaska highway with bias ply tires .... at least it had been chip sealed so was'nt just gravel. Still pretty stupid. About a year ago my BIL gave me a ride in his new Corvette and decided to show me how fast it could go, I saw 285k on the speedo... never again. That basically scared the crap out of me.

Late 80s, after making some carb adjustments, we hit 120 riding with my dad in my 1964 GTO with dry rotted bias ply tires. He couldn't hardly steer it with those tires in that condition. That scared me. 120 or more riding with my brother in his 1972 corvette convertible heading home from Philly for a wedding. 119.5 governed mph in my 1984 trans Am in WA near Port Angelos.

The scariest ride though was 90 mph at night on, I think, a 680 cc Sea Doo Summit across a frozen lake outside of Fairbanks, AK in the 90s. Your eyes start watering so bad you can't see.

Stupid, stupid,stupid

On pavement 145 mph in a buddy's Supra.

Used to regularly do 70+ mph on pavement and gravel on ATVs but hitting a deer at ~50 mph (w/o a helmet of course) got me to stop that. Blessed to be alive and most injuries healed within a few months.

My wife bought me a race car experience for my birthday one year. Got to drive a formula 1 car 160+ around the track. Even passed another car going that fast.

Had to take a 4 hour classroom course before I did it. Wish I had a dollar for each time they said “don’t do this or you will die.”

I hit 102 in my 06 Chevy cobalt on a smooth open stretch of freeway in middle america. Car felt great and I would've kept going but my wife was not having it.

170 in a 2002 Dodge Viper and 155 on a CBR 1100 with a girl on the back. Finally wised up and quit buying fast things.

The girl or the vehicles?
