:rofl Wait 'till you hit that track on the R6, I was hitting 130 at the end of the straight while still leaving a comfortable brake cushion before that first turn.

And on that note the highest I’ve ever been was that, about 130.

LOL, I hope so. 98 mph is the fastest I ever gone even after I got my R6. I am sure I will get to a different number at NJMP and riding a MUCH MUCH MUCH more powerful machine…:excited:excited:excited:excited

Since we’re talking about cars now… lol

Altima SER- 148 electronic limiter, only hit it once, went 135+ a few other times though, those last 10 mph take a while in a 3300lb ~220whp car :lmao

MR2- ~110 or so, it got kinda shaky up there due to shitty alignment and all original bushings, etc :lol

180+, Single Turbo Supra, I-10, Tucson AZ ~2002. Blown intercooler pipe ended the pull, which was probably the best thing that could of happened, lol. Also approaced similar speeds driving one of Dennis Walsh’s old Supra’s while he was tuning it (and racing a GSXR1000 at the same time, lol)

From a 70 roll, my 67 car would initially get pulled by a 1000 of that era (2002), but I’d make my way around it at about 120 or so.
