Only a measly 137 mph in my 84 Trans Am in 1991. Of course I did this with four guys in the car almost the entire length of Park Point in Duluth at 1am with a few cocktails under my belt. Not very smart of me.

Also did 118 mph in my CRX on the way to Brainerd. Held this speed for almost 20 minutes straight. That car was a real dog.

I'm looking forward to trying a run on 610 this year. Theoretical top speed is 192 mph in 5th gear at 8500 rpms with enough room to do so. And yes, I have the power to push through the aerodynamic restriction to do it. Having the balls might be another question though.
