Personal Land Speed Records
So..we all like our fast cars...
The question is, just who out there amongst us has had the guts to
really 'see what she'll do'...and kept the pedal there til she couldn't
give no more....
What are your personal speed records and what kind of car were they set in?
Mine personally, is 128 (driving) in 92 SE-R that a friend of mine owns..
his is 120, and we do have a picture (scanned even) of the speedo indicating
121 or so...if people want, I will post it on alt.binarires.pictures.vehicles
I know this isn't very fast compared to what a lot of other cars can do,
but hey..I'm poor (can't afford my 5.0 Mustang yet.. 8?\ )
My personal record riding is in a 1986 5.0 Mustang notchback
that was completely stock except for bumping the timing to 13 degrees
and it had 255/65's on the rear...we hit 150 and it was still pulling
but we ran out of empty road...I know this seems a little far fetched for
this car, but this car was beating other stock newer (225HP instead of
200) Mustang's in street races.. My friend must just have gotten one of
those rare extra well put together ones I guess
Anyone out there in the 200MPH club yet? 250???
Thanks...and in this instance...long stories are welcomed...either post
or email to char0011@maroon.tc.umn.edu
Thanks,
Bill
