I have had my TT upto around 150 mph I think I chould have got another 20 mph out of it buy did not feel that safe.

Passenger, 155 mph and I was not happy about that

surely it would hit 155 and stop accelerating?

I'll just have a spurt up the wall...

130mph legally (dunlop straight at Donington).

Limiter in 5th on road. Don't really like going that fast though

Do you want the cars that they were done in?

[TW]Fox · 13 Jun 2006 at 19:26

Passenger, 135mph. The salesman wanted to 'Show me what it could do' when I test drove a 530i Sport :rolleyes:

155mph indicated in the M3 (it does 145 in 4th with 2 gears to go

)
150mph indicated on the gsxr

all in a safe track environment of course

looking forward to the rempa as I lose the speed limiter on the car and maybe my licence

Winner, can we close the thread now ?

147-150mph indicated (driving) bouncing off the limiter in 5th.

No idea what the quickest as a passenger is. Don't think it'd be that quick.

I'm loving the fact that your track speeds are lower than your road speeds mate

DreXeL · 13 Jun 2006 at 19:34

Driver: 175 indicated and still pulling. It wasn't all that long ago either.......

Of course this was not on public roads..

Not at those speeds....would have been something more Mclaren-ish I would think.
