140 felt solid I have 18s and new bushings, stock struts and springs. I would have gone faster however was afraid of the PO PO. If you get busted at that speed you go straight to Jail no questions asked.

That's friggen ludicrous speed!

I just put some Good Year super car tires on my ride this weekend.
$1200 just for the four tires. Rated to 186 mph. I wonder how fast my car will get up to. I think it will be safe to exceed 150 now in a straight line
Suspention helped a lot. I can do 100+ in 3rd gear and still got 3 more gears I guess now I’ll have to find out. I hope I don't total another NA-T

Spice!!!! These cars don't have the capability of reaching 170mph unless you have modified the gearing in either the differential or tranny... Stock I don't think so....

With all that being said I have taken my SC400 up to Warp speed and achieved the speed of light just once...Amazingly enough I only felt a little vibration coming from directly under my ****...

I hit about mach 2, car was pretty stable. Everything was cool until the POlice fired a sidewinder at me. I broke hard, but to no avail. I had to eject. I am currently in midair with my sweet ride spiraling in flames back towards earth. .

(ps, as mentioned before there is a huge thread already on this)
