UK drivers?

[lord_verminaard at yahoo.com (Brendan Doyle)]

Had the 160 speedo in my Camaro nearly maxed once. Not sure how far it got, I was watching the road. :P  That was heading south on I95 right outside Baltimore City.  :)

Never again on public roads.

140 in Montana in my old 16v.
130 in Virginia in the R32.  (speed limiter got me and I couldn't get
away from the WS-6)
120 routinely in the mountains.
