what just flew past my window??

so on the way to work this morning...i check out the rearview and see a guy i work with who also drives a ss/sc. so as one who doesn't believe in cannabalism i just stay cruising, he passed me then got in my lane and cruised a little slower than me so i go out to pass him and he drops it to fourth and takes off. finally after a few seconds i react...cause im comatouse this ealry int he morning...i drop it and follow. i passed a new speed barrier, i was doing 140 when i looked at the speedo. i looked up and he is inching away yet, regardless i back off because of the high cop activity in the area.

we get to work and he jumps out and says he hit 160. i said dont make me do that that early again...

so woohoo for going fast on my way to work this morning...and we were both early for wok too...who woulda thunk it!

what kind of top speeds is everybody else getting?

about 155-157 is my top. Ive seen people hit 160 stock, must be the strong canadian winds slowing me down.

It's not a good dream if she is "sitting beside you!"

Unless you've got some small tires, 6600 rpm is good for about 170 in 5th, and 7200 will put you at 185...I believe you topped 160, but you may want to double-check your numbers. Either that, or you started spinning your tires...

I know I was going pretty damn fast an I hit 7200 in 5th so whatever that equates to... I didn't want to speculate since the speedo only hits 160
