I know a few that are all about topping out at nigh on 200 (and a bit sometimes!)

Wheelspin after a gearchange at 150mph was enough for me.... When he kept it going I was proper worried I might die......

Thing is, REAL speed and clock speed is 2 different things, esp at high speed, 10mph at most speeds, often double that is we talking mental speeds.
Fastest ive been is a Datron proven 197.7mph, so about 215mph is you believed a speedo.
Fastest ive driven is 7500rpm in 5th in my old Cossie, as that was the rev limiter.

Limiter in 5th on my S2 which we think is about 152mph. Done a proven 149.7bhp at Brunters in it.
FRST an indicated 140
Current Audi to an indicated 150mph but my bottle went after that so I eased back as I didn't fancy being killed that day

105mph indicated. not bad for a 1.2 clio on 17s.
took 4miles of my "private" road (M8)to slowly wind it up to that speed. funny thing is that was with 5 people in the car, ive tried a few times to beat that speed on my own but ive never did it
The hell will i try it again though. had a brown pants moment with a suicidal fox. hard braking= very twitchy back end
