As everybody knows speedo's lie but 160 in the truck with 505fastest taking speedo pic's, 180+ on my Busa, 117 on gps with recall in my 21ft v-drive "that boat makes everything seem slow"

135...... ya know after about 130 you get tunnel vision.. and refering to a post made
a page back i think... how did you get caught doing 154? i would think the cop
would have no chance to catch up at that speed :dontknow: did he radio ahead?

Well my dumbass was speeding on I-564 going to Naval Station Norfolk. So I really didn't have nowhere to run beside the base or Hampton Blvd which has craters for pot holes..

If I would have been heading east instead I could have had a chance but it would have probably been short lived, there are alot cops in this area...I mean alot and not the many SRT-10s...

well when the 101 is shut off and the chp is in front of us its not so curvy?:dontknow: ( anybody know what curvy means)..
this is a repost of a couple times. no pic of the 157 here, but it was a long this part of the 101

Um, I did 3 knots at a depth of 300' in the Nevada.

Man, those Trident subs steer like a cow!

That road compared to the rest of VA is nice and smooth....

You are a wise man...Keeping in the track...Plus at 150+ you would hydroplane yourself to Oahu...

Anyone been on Concorde? That's about the only thing that will come close to Bone's record.

-In the truck: 140+ (5th gear with PLENTY left to go).
Don't know the exact speed because I was kinda focused.

-Personal top speed: 190+ in a Lola F1 car.
If you ever want to know what it's like to be shot out of a cannon but aren't big on the whole circus thing, drive an F1 car.

[pissant#420]

150+ after that is when the tranny failed

 

[SCVette]

157.909 at the Texas Mile, March 06, and I know I was nearer to 160 when the rod blew through the block on the next run!
I had only jetted up the nitrous 3 times by then.

160 at least twice,in fifth still pulling,need more road without traffic!!!

Previous dyno runs show the speedo is accurate,I need a to know where
or how to read 170 plus?:dontknow:
Sixth gear at redline(Hmmmm)???????????:rock: :rock: :rock:

I'm curious how drivers are hitting 160+mph when a professional NASCAR Truck Series driver couldn't do it.

I'm not saying Brendan is a wimp (by any stretch), but maybe he could have pushed a little harder with his right foot.

Also: Isn't there a computer shut-off in our trucks? Anyone reached it yet?

Nope, no computer shut off that I have ever heard about.
