Speed limiter kick in? Did it feel like there was anything left or was she out of breath getting there?

Taking a picture while driving 150 mph. Brilliant!

I know what I did was stupid am not proud of it but I did it anyway . Will I do it again no for sure

aalaref

reaching that speed wasn't easy it took time , I felt there was a bet more but I realized what I was doing was creazy

Ahhadanny

Life is short outside 37 degree lol WOW, that is damn HOT.
Why do you choose hybrid? avoiding tax? Coz I thought gas should be quite cheap in your area.

we don't pay taxes I bought the hybrid because it was the only LC available

most of us have taken our cars to the max at least once, even if they dont admit it. but yes, it doesnt matter what kind of technology is in a car. at 150 nothing is going to save you if something goes wrong. i took my LS400 to 160 once.

Torii

did that many times back in the 80's when i was a teenager...no regrets. no internet or digital cameras either...

Same here, though I don't think my modified Z28 could quite get to 150. Took several others to 130. Stupid youth tricks - you think you're invincible :-) I don't think I've seen triple digits since I got married over 25 years ago.

Still nice to know your car can do those kinds of speeds should you ever need/want to...

Vitveet

If marriage is the reason you haven't seen triple digit in 25 years, it's time for a divorce, lolol! J/k!
But yeah, for the F cars (and LC500s), cruising at highway speeds, doesn't take but a few seconds to hot triple digits. One wrong (right) press of the gas and you're there, lol. Just be careful/safe doing it and don't risk harming other people. Nothing wrong with risking yourself if that's what you want to do. People do MUCH more dangerous things out here in the world than going triple digits in a car designed to do those speeds.
And by no means am I encouraging speeding, but many many many more people die in car accidents doing the speed limit or under the speed limit than they do driving over the speed limit☺️. Obviously the ratios are off, etc, lol. Just something to tell yourself while doing g triple digits! Lol.
Be safe out there!

Wrong! It was stupid, very stupid.

After reading this thread, it makes me laugh. Some guys want big number in HP, or this car is lag, slow ....blah, blah,blah compare other cars on papers. But at the end of the day, they never ever use all of its potential nor ever take it the track, and it just stays in the garage most of the time. They buy it for status symbol.
