    Pegged it at 150, 3 in the morning, highway was totally empty.

    To keep your vert safe, good suspension, 6 point roll cage, haha.

    My speedo reads almost 130(125-127ish) at the end of the 1/4....:p

    I hit 140 once when the car was stock. I doubt it well ever see that speed again.

    I got to 127 before shuting it down one time it was still accelerating but I didn't trust my tires enough to go any faster.

    The needle was past 150... I was on a 3 mile stretch of road, 2 lanes, no traffic, broad daylight, 80 degrees... Top down

    I went until I ran out of RPMs...

    ...Then I went home and changed my underwear.

    Hit ~145 on the speedo.

    Stayed between 125 and 145 for a good 2-3 minutes.

    Burned about 1/4 tank of gas. lol

    That was with my 2.73's though. I doubt Ill hit that with 3.73s.

    130ish with the 3.73s in 5th and it was still pulling but I was quickly running out of road.

    110-120 is almost common place though...

    haha its funny to see the words "160mph" and "safe" in the same sentence. I wouldn't encourage anyone to try that on public roads. I've gone 120 in mine, and it still has more in it, but the 3.73's were howling so I let-off before anything blew-up. I want to get 3.27's put in and a viper-spec T56 (0.5:1 6th gear :D ) when I get the turbo'ed 418 next year (shooting for 600-700hp). But even with that, I wouldn't trust our car's stability above 150mph. at the very least get a 6-point rollcage.

    How fast have you taken yours?

    To me each vehicle I own is good to a different MPH... my ford 500, 80 TOPS, my truck 70-75 mph... My Mustang is 120ish as I have the Z rated tires, cobra brakes, etc...

    But I hrar ya, there are few times and places to go that fast... :D

    You should try troubleshooting your transmission that pops out of gear in the upper rpms in 3rd gear only. The one time it held at 75% throttle it ran 125ish in the top of third at 6,200 or so rpm. Man this new stroker has some power. :D

    On a closed course of course.

    In my '94 I've gone maybe a 100 or so. I won't be going any faster in it until I do a good amount of suspension mods. Now my old '04 I went 150ish a couple times. :D
    It was fun, but I've toned down and doubt I'll be doing that again on public roads in any car.

    as far as i am concerned noone has done that speed unless it was gps verified--speedos are way to inaccurate.

    Absolutely Not true idk with gears and changed speedo gear , but my stock 3.08 GPS verified has a top of 1-2 mph difference on all speeds from 0-120 mph verified , idk anything beyond that i dont have high speed rated tires to do more, but this cars have the most acurate speedo i have ever seen on a car.
