My personal top speed
-
Car, bike, motorcycle whatever as long as you where on the controls!! (airplane passengers do not count :-D) Don't forget mph/kph (1 mph ~= 1,6kph) MY PERSONAL TOP SPEED: 196 kph (or 197 ;)) MEDIUM: Car: Audi A3 (it was the max speed :(( "If I don't see you in this world, I'll see you in the next one... and don't be late." ~ Jimi Hendrix
I'd say somewhere in the 160/170kph range in an old Chevy Impala. It was a bucket of #^$^$@^!, but it had a 350 in it, what can I say? We were never really into the speed thing, more into going out to the country roads and doing Dukes of Hazzard type manuevers and jumps. (Yes, I've had all 4 wheels off the ground in a car, complete with the Bo Duke scream) Our fun ended one night when we tried one of those Duke-boy classic "jam the breaks and crank the wheel hard" slide. Not enough gravel to perform the slide, (it was dark) and we went head first into the ditch. No more games after that.
:cool: Pssst. You see that little light on your monitor? That's actually a government installed spy camera. Smile and wave to big brother!

Car; 180kph in my little 1.3litre Tazz going downhill with a stiff wind behind me. Powerboat; 60mph and holy crap does it feel faster than that. Any speed on water feels a whole lot more than on land. Bits of sand from the deck up front felt like needles embedding themselves in my face. regards, Paul Watson South Africa Michael Dunn wrote: "except the sod who voted this a 1, NO SOUP FOR YOU" Crikey! ain't life grand?

Around 185-190 km/h on a Honda VFR motorcycle. I don't know the exact speed, I was afraid to take my eyes off the road to look how fast I was going - just blinking your eyes at that speed feels scary already :wtf: And then I saw that there were cameras on the road I was driving, so I had to hit the brakes. I think the cameras weren't operational, otherwise it would have been 'bye-bye drivers license'.

About 250 kph (over 155mph) on my daytona (triumph motorcycle) On a normal UK A road. The speed limit for the road was 96 kph or 60 mph as we like to say in the UK so it was a bit naughty. to be honest once you get over 100mph things get really scary so i wont be doing that again. Jon ;P

Hit the 200kph mark in Germany with my 1990 Golf GL 10-11 years ago. (The last 30kph took time, a downhill road and a breeze in the right direction...) Tried to top that last year with another car, but my girlfriend stopped me at 180. (Well, maybe that was fast enough...)

My typical crusing speed in germany is about 220 km/h. However sometimes I drive at my cars top speed which is 250 km/h (Its electronically limited :-( ) I also do gliding since more than 15 years and I fly sometimes a 'FOX' which is an aerobatic sailplane for some fun. There is my top speed about 300km/h IAS (Indicated Air Speed) bb |~ bb

This summer I had my Fuji[^] racing bike up to 63 kph. Trust me, that was scarier than when I drove an F2000 car at 180 kph. And I regularly drive my '92 Jetta diesel at around 120 kph. :) Chris Meech I am Canadian.

200 what cows/horses/sheep ?;) no I mean mph or kph? [EDIT]mmm to think of it, mph would be a bit fast I think (320kph ?? seems a bit much)[/EDIT] "If I don't see you in this world, I'll see you in the next one... and don't be late." ~ Jimi Hendrix
If he managed 200mph in a BMW 323 2.7l he'd be on the cover of AutoCar and BMW Williams would be looking to hire him to tune their F1 cars :-D ProfK is a Saffa and we use kph here, so more than likely 200kph. regards, Paul Watson South Africa Michael Dunn wrote: "except the sod who voted this a 1, NO SOUP FOR YOU" Crikey! ain't life grand?

>This summer I had my Fuji[^] racing bike up to 63 kph X| Bloody scary indeed. Durban, where I used to live as a kid, is well known for it's insane hills and while tailing my mom's car one morning on the way to school I got my mountain bike up to 50kph. I arrived at the traffic lights with white knuckles and a screaming mom. Glad I didn't stain my school uniform. Fun but scary, never again. regards, Paul Watson South Africa Michael Dunn wrote: "except the sod who voted this a 1, NO SOUP FOR YOU" Crikey! ain't life grand?
