Top Speed...How Fast have you gone?
In my 2001 lightning, in 2005, many years ago, a little over 5k rpm in top gear. Put in my final drive and axle ratio, tire size etc into a calculator, and it was anywhere from 161-165. I've since gone faster in other vehicles
I've buried the speedo. Everything is fine and dandy up till about 120 and then 125+ really starts to get a little tickled pink, lol. Yea at 120 I'm perfectly comfortable, but then soon after it's like a switch gets flicked and you REALLY feel like you're moving, lol!
135 mph in the Lightning, coming back from a trip in 2001, for a couple miles until I thought, FOOL! WTH are you DOING? 54 mph was nothing to me, though it was wide open, atop a Polaris 800 Virage watercraft, but 72 mph inside a 25 foot Sleekcraft Ambassador with an Olds 455 and Berkeley jet was simply terrifying, probably because I wasn't driving.
I have gone 152 by my gps in my ford lightning
