who's the fastest

Mine hasn't gone over 75, at least since I've owned it. I haven't taken it out of Myrtle Beach yet so it hasn't been on a highway and you can't go too fast around town. Honestly, I don't plan on it either. My days of driving home to NJ are long over.

You people are crazy!!!! I get nervous and start looking around for popo (aka, cops, fuzz, whatever) when I hit anything above 70! 75 is really risking it... and I never stay at or above 70 for more than a mile or two. I MIGHT pull 100 with a valentine one at 2 am on the veterans (toll road) on a straight away... but only if all of the conditions were right (and I dont have a V1) How do you people have the balls to go that fast?! Isn't that a felony!?

Lemme guess, you've never done 180 mph in a 98 tt supra have you :D
 






you know, speed is the one thing i miss about the X. I used to have a NOS'd Mazda 626 v6 5 ps, and with the first tranny i had in, it would wind up to about 150mph...before nos (but NOS doesn't really work well for both high and low speed, so i had mine set up for 1/4 times). I know with the X, it feels as if you going fast, due to the height, etc, but still, it's something else to fly along the freeway at night at crazy speeds...although i'm sure it's not for everyone, including myself now...
 






Yea, seems like when I was "Younger" I was a speed deamon everywhere. Now I tend to think twice about it. Oh well, just a vertue of getting older.
 






85 is as fast as i would care to go in my 97 x sport...it's a little to unstable and it does not forgive a mistake that easy....if at all

drive slower then 75 here and you'll get killed lol. My mom usually sets the cruis on about 80-85 in her 5.0 Mounty and I do about the same in hers and the 94'. I have a V1 that my grandfather gave me when I 1st got my truck about 5yrs ago for my 16th B-Day...it still kicks azz.
