02 c32 99 superduty
180mph!
I took my C32 to 180 with my dad and uncle in the car-LOL! L.E.T raised the factory limiter on my car along with tuning it to my mods, I don't know if I have the marbles to do it again but it was pretty intense, All I could think about was a tire blowing out or something catastrophic that would kill us!

Depends on the season
186 tucked behind my windscreen on my crotch rocket. Snapped my head back something fierce when I poked my head up out of the pocket

2001 SLK320
Nagging
Had my SLK 320 in the hill country of Texas decided to give it some gas. The question was who would get to 160 first! The SLK 320 or my wife's nagging (nph). The SLK320 did not have a chance
