Where at? How fast? How long did you keep it at that speed. I seen some jaw dropping utube clips.

I have had it up to 125mph on a Highway close to where I live. I kept it there for about 10 seconds. It can without a doubt handle more, but I have to admit, I was a little nervous.
The car handled like a dream. It was rock solid with no unwanted noises or vibrations. After slowing down to 70mph, it felt like 30.

I legally had it up to 125 MPH in fourth gear and the rev limiter flashing. The straight away at Thunderhill Raceway ended so I lifted. The car would certainly have pulled past 125 if I'd put it in fifth and had more straight.

148mph legally... no storytelling with that.

Ah so much illegal activity, this thread will get locked soon enough. But when I was at the "track" I took my 350 up to 160 in 5th gear. Gotta love the gov limiter.
I've gotten a lot smarter with the 370 now. It's my baby and I have never taken it above 90. Even that was just to pass someone Sunday driving in the fast lane.

I'm all about that 0-SpeedLimit.
Really, there's no point to these speed threads unless they are directed at people who have had their speed limiters removed.

145 at el mirage in california. It's a dry lakebed, perfectly legal. I was pretty scared of running over a patch of grass or some idiot on a skateboard (ON A SKATEBOARD!) and flipping and/or killing someone so I let off though I'm rather certain I could have taken it much faster.

Briefly touched 130 MPH in 4th once. Touched 100 MPH a few times. After the recent 100 MPH pull, I don't think I'll do that again. It's something I must think twice about not only because it is dangerous, but for some reason I don't have much confidence with the car at this speed. A small bump and the car just wants to swerve left or right. It's something with the steering, or the tires, but I have trouble keeping the car straight.
Swifts + stock shocks appear to be okay for street driving, but definitely not at higher speeds. Even within city limits, I'd like for things to be a tad stiffer.
