Oh and BTW, when was the last time you went into Home Depot or some other major home hardware store and saw a lawnmower in the garden section with the label "Mazda" on it? Hmm? I know I've seen plenty of Honda lawnmowers there though (and I own one)!!

I've done 130. The previous owner said he got it up to 145. The time that I got it up to 130 was really the only time I tried to push it to see how fast I could go. I'll have to try again sometime.

well...when mine was running, I hit about 110, but that's all the higher I could go at the time...roads around here aren't straight enough on the backroads, not to mention that the state highway patrol andthe local cops both patrol the four-lane that I was using...and did someone mention that floating feeling
yeah, i was scared of the cops/highway patrol.... but when you're going 130, you can see lights behind u and in front, and if someone starts catching up to you, get the hell off the freeway, make some turns and chill for about 20-30 min, take a nap or something...
well i recently topped out at 65. the absolute fastest the car would go. it was at night but i put my headlights down to get about 3 more mph out of it. my mods are one blown rear rotor, gutted cats, no mufflers, no ac or ps, and alot of weight removal.
i hit 155 in my 88T2 at night with the windows and sunroof open and a passenger. i also had a bit of backpressure in the exhaust, going from 3" dp to 2.5" catback isn't very good for high speed runs. i'm sure i would've easily passed the 160 mark on the speedo....but will never know
i think the biggest problem with going fast is watching for cops and stuff. whenever i go i always have someone in the car as a second pair of eyes. anyone actaully get a ticket while pushing it? my biggest ticket was 86 in a 70. im sure there are bigger.

137mph, and she was still slowly pulling. The road I was on was too floaty (and narrow) to keep going comfortably. It was a definet rush though. I can't wait to get this pile of parts on and see what she'll do then.
