In my own car... about 80 mph (generally I wont drive faster than 65 mph though). As a passenger... about 170mph... we were not on a race track and I was not happy about this.

Perhaps 85 mph to get out of a bad situation on the highway. In general, I'm a 35 mph tops guy.

I once drove at 90 mph during a driving lesson to overtake a truck. My driving instructor wasn't best pleased.

The maximum speed limit out here is 75 mph on the interstate, and I don't think I've ever gone any faster than 85 mph.

Haven't driven myself yet, but I guess the fastest I've ever been driven as a passenger was 130mph, could've gone faster (was in a ferrari) but it were really small streets and the speed limit was probably 30mph lol.

Me driving my BMW at 128 MPH at 03:00 on a deserted motorway, and I ran out of poke before the car did.
Fantastic; loved it.

A driving lesson is the only time I've done 90 mph as well.I wasn't overtaking,just got carried away and didn't realise. I've tried to stick to the speed limits ever since

I think 80. Wasn't paying attention to how fast I was going until I looked at the speedometer.

109MPH in my white Toyota Carola, and down I-10. I was supposed to be going 65-70 MPH through all that traffic.

I don't think I've gone past 90 mph. I don't have the guts to on the highway.

About 182 miles per hour (about 293 kph). That's about 3 miles per minute, or 294 feet per second (89.7 metres per second) - almost the entire length of an American football field each second!

No, my brother's Trans-Am on the Bonneville Salt Flats. I was trying for 200 or more.

Does the Trans Am speedometer even go that high?
