how fast have you gone???
 

I wonder how fast you have driven, assuming it was safe , maybe on a race track ? As a stupid kid I took my V65 up to 145mph on the highway. I only drove my 944 up to 95mph while passing a slow poke who then decided to speed up. I did drag race one season in a 1973 dodge dart built just for that but I don't remember the top speed as it was all about time, around 14 seconds 1/4 mile.

115 in my old '84.

When I was going to prom, on the highway there was a kid in a 944 with nice paint which mine was lacking. I blew past him since there wasn't any traffic around us, got over 100 then.

how recently?

any time in your driving history ;)

24 years ago, 140+, stupid, on a motorcycle. about the same time, ~135, stupid, in my dad's prelude SI. more recently, i take the 5th.

I run my 951 completely out in 3rd - say about 105 - every now and then, but am chicken to go faster.

My son has taken his 951 up to 120 and cruised there for a half hour or so when he was on a trip to Eastern Washington. He said it wasn't any different than 80 or 100 in terms of stability.

145 and I hit the cruise control across the desert in my 951 (2 years ago). 165 in a blown '69 hemi charger.

1990 - The Ill. state trooper said I was going 160mph headed north towards Wisconsin. Ticket cost $435.00 in those days mail in - never did show up on my Wisconsin drivers license. I was driving a 1988 951 Turbo S.

In 1967 I owned a 1954 Corvette with a new 327ci - 375 hp. FI. small block. California Highway patrol never did catch up to me this particular time. They pulled up behind my car as it was parked at a diner and I was already inside. They said they were going 150mph trying to keep up, but couldn't - They were very interested in my car at the time though,and almost wanted to tow it - they didn't though.

Dumb kids do stupid things.

I have gone 100mph in my 89 944 NA and did 110mph in my 73 super beetle. Just after the 110 run I was on an off ramp and a cop pulled beside me then left back onto the highway. I figured he was thinking there is no way a bug was doing 110. Car was good for more. :)

Buck thirty five on the track. It was a loooooooooooooooong straight.

Also hit an indicated 135 in my Camaro in high school in the middle of the night in the middle of nowhere. I doubt it was really going that fast. . .1973 two barrel.

Topped out 5th Gear in my Spec car around NASCAR turns 1 and 2 at Cal Speedway (now called The Auto Club Speedway)

I've done 100 on the motorway for a few minutes in my 924S. Plan on seeing if it'll get to 130 on the autobahn on holiday in a couple of weeks.

My dad bought a day's driving instruction from Bentley in a charity auction (they offer courses for new owners). On an airfield we did 175 in a Flying Spur. They are huge cars and have incredible acceleration. We also did emergency stops from 130mph, slaloms and spun it a lot.

Really showed me that you need to think way ahead if you're going fast and not going to spin.

I'm going to find a track day or autosolo later in the year to improve my skills.

255 kmh several times on autobahn 6 westbound near Homberg exit in 85.5 n/a. Gotta have it floored at the top of the hill and you'll hit 255-260 at the bottom. Can do it on A-63 too. Did it with my friends 951-s without the hill. You can hit 240 on the flat road of a-67 & a-5 all day. Of course, that was in the 90's when the car still youthful. Very important to have a properly tuned radio tho.

warp factor 8 in the 944, as fast as she'll go...

110 in my 85.5 944 na, 170 on my motorcycle twice with room to go faster, just ran out of road.

130 ish in my 928
100-110 at NHMS in my 951. (will be updated once I go to a bigger track :) )

183 GPS verified since my speedo was buried. Anyone else know that the foam spoilers on a 944 tend to vibrate and deform in the middle at over 160? Now I know why the factory racers used a rigid spoiler.

Flat out 83 944 (RIP) w/ 418hp v8 944 turbo transmission and n/a 5th gear.
