Me, 147, L.A, Mustang. Fastest truck was 97, I-10 Arizona, Peterbilt.
I'm sure I've seen faster, on night 10 years ago in San Diego, someone....or something, passed me so fast I thought I dreamed it. Thing is, for those of you who don't have radar, the speeders usually stay in the left lane so you never get them on radar or cross back too far away. They have to cross back pretty quick at those speeds!
So, let's hear it drivers. Car and truck, top speeds.
To those who have radar, what is the fastest speed you have seen?

Guys on youtube doing 200 mph wheelies on bikes going down the freeway....
I got a maxxforce prostar up to 94 one time...Had 14k on board, new tires, feeling confident....
Bypassed govenor of coarse to do it...
Probably wont do it again as most tires rated for 70 mph...lolDye Guardian and Dave_in_AZ Thank this. -
Truck - 85ish. I don't really keep with those as most that pass me are in the 68-72 group.
Fastest car I ever got was 102. I had a crotch rocket blow by me but he was way too fast to get on the radar. Probably 130 or better.
So who else plays the "Guess How Fast He's Going" game? I've gotten pretty good at it.Dave_in_AZ Thanks this. -
rabbiporkchop and Dave_in_AZ Thank this.

Lol, guys this wasn't meant to be a 'how fast have you gone' thread. It's how fast have you clocked someone on the radar. You have to have one on the truck to play, sorry. Or unless you some weirdo that keeps a radar gun in your truck...

Myself Truck = just under 90
Car = 69' Firebird / modified 350 Turbo 400 / 172 MPH
Not sure what this POS will do.
130's to 140's are not uncommon for me, but I'm getting old, so certainly not as common as they used to be.
I rented one of those Chrysler 300 with the hemi in it about a year ago to go to Vegas. If I buy a new car or newer car, that would be the one. They are HUGE inside. Doing about 75 on HWY 93 I punched it, and it went to 110 in the blink of an eye. Had Dad with me, and that's a little fast for him, so dunno what it would have done.blairandgretchen Thanks this. -

Lol, I've created a monster! Now everyone is going to keep telling us their top speed stories. Guess I need to edit the title. Too funny!
tucker Thanks this.
