Re: 137 mph in a civic
 

according to the speedo on the del sol i put it vertically down perpendicular to the ground which is about 150-155ish if the numbers kept going.
Gotta love them LS trannies. still had 600-700 rpms left.
It gets ------- scary when your almost at redline in 5th gear.

grow up.

Re: 137 mph in a civic
 

i pegged the beetle speedo last week on 405. 150+. who ------ cares

When the chassis lifts 1.5" inches and the wind noise suddenly goes away...Thats when you need to slow the ---- down.


Fastest ive ever been on the streets was 168mph on my dad's GSXR 750 (inaccurate speedos from what I understand...) and 172mph in a 996 twin turbo, which I wont be doing again, as it was ------- stupid (obviously not my car...) and you cover ALOT of ground at those speeds. I ran 5 miles in what seemed like no time at all.

Re: 137 mph in a civic
 

Growing up will make me speed past 100 ???

I'm sure it's been above it, but not since I've owned it. Driving to work and home and wherever else, I have no reason to go that fast. I've been maybe 90 to keep up with traffic on the interstate, and that's it.

Maybe because I am grown up?

Re: 137 mph in a civic
 

Ok, so 90 is ok as long as everyone else is going that fast, but 100 is bad.

I think he told you to grow up (because it was funny) and its naive to suppose that driving down the freeway in heavy traffic @ 65 miles an hour (or 90) is somehow safer than driving 140 miles an hour down the same road with no traffic, so by attempting to prove your maturity you succeeded only in displaying your naivety.

Re: 137 mph in a civic
 

No, you are saying some off the wall ----.

I said I haven't taken the crx to 100. This is true.

I said I don't have a reason to go that fast, and that I've been 90 to keep up with traffic. Thus, I had a reason.

Since when was making a true statement an attempt to prove maturity? In that case, you're a fuckhead. Ooh, feeling more mature already.

Re: 137 mph in a civic
 

Wonder what the OP'd Civic had done to it to be going that fast. :P

Re: 137 mph in a civic
 

Maybe nothing. He could have just been going downhill, with a wind pushing, and may have taken 5 minutes to get there. The bone stock, automatic integra ls made it there, according to the speedo.
