well the gallardo "said" we were doing 225 but i gps verified it at 220, their speedos are off just a tiny bit, at 1500awhp hits 220 pretty easily...

the merci i did 180 in death valley a couple years back, it was my uncles car...

celica wouldnt go any faster than 153, plus i was hanging out in the 8k rpm range and was scared i was going to blow up my engine... lol

corollas are limited at 110

my FRS took a while to get to 130, but itll do it

i only speed like that once a year and it HAS to be on an open road where i see no tail lights or headlights... im not stupid the only person ill put in danger is myself, if i come up on tail lights i usually start slowing down when they are still a mile out...

go for it, just be careful, those kind of speeds are deadly, make sure your fully prepped for the texas mile, the surface there can be unforgiving at times...
