Somewhere between 215/220 in a hired Toyota Avalon on the Stuart HWY,

200 so far in the T

220 in a S14 I use to own

220 in 302 ute I used to own

215 in a EB 4L I used to own

[Skooby]

I have only ever done 110 KPH. 

I was however, a passenger in my car while the WOG took it out on a test drive down the street... OMG!

I'm sorry, I know im new to all this and this is probably a silly question, but who is this "wog" character of yours? when a car has been "wogged" what does that mean? is this a specific person or is there some sort of underlying problem with the greek and italian communities round here?

His user name is Dynowog. He owns and operates an engine management workshop in Coburg. Many of the guys have had their cars edited (wogged, capa flashed) through him.

There's also the 'wog cooler', which of course is a bigger intercooler - not some ethnic esky..

No underlying problems

OK boys....here goes!!!

1. 310 kph in a racing square 4 rg500 suzuki at Sandown - I could fit into racing leathers back then and had about a packet of cigs at the end of each race

2. 250 kph in my stock XR6T - easy - handbuilt by the boys at FPV

3. 75 mph in a 1969 Expensive Daewoo on corregations somewhere between Ayres Rock and Pt Augusta - WE ENDED UP LOSING ALL OUR GEAR THAT WAS ON THE ROOF RACK

Lost count of how many times I've hit the speed limiter in both my XR's.

Also hit it in a VW R32 (250) whilst on a test drive, track of course

Top speed is cool but how about average spped...

I had an italian once drive my car 300kms in 1.5 hours... In traffic.. do the maths.....

I have done over 300 in someones driveway...... Whats the bonus here.. I have held a bike on its back wheel when the speedo runs out at 299..... Whatever makes you feel good fellas, cause someone will always go faster..

I THINK THIS THREAD SHOULD BE CLOSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

170kph, felt pretty good and the car felt to be stable at that speed. I done it on the way to philip island but dont tell anyone ok :punchhead:

←

Muzza.

Ok, this is a tricky one ....

I don't want to encourage the irresponsible use of speed, especially by those less experienced drivers.

The T is an awesome machine capable of (fairly) safe, high-speed travel under ideal conditions and God knows I've been guilty of pushing the envelope (and the limiter), but you only get to die once ... I want mine to be of old age.
