Great car.a 1968 silver fastback Cuda with a 383. It was on the Illinois tollway between Lake Forest and the Wisconsin border. We were both too stupid to understand. I don't recall it had seat belts either. The good ol' days...
Probably the highest that officer will see.Is 161 mph really "staggering"?
At that speed he could have crossed the entire state of NH in what, 30sec ?Probably the highest that officer will see.
That’s classic, must be a TGT member.I'll see your speed and raise you a mobile fireball: This happened yesterday about 20 miles from my house.

SM?The fastest I ever drove on a public highway was back in March 1988 on the E30 between Osnabruck and the Dutch border. I got my speedo needle up to 147mph and kept it there for about 20 minutes. I got rather used to the speed but as the Autobhan ended at the Dutch border and turned into and ordinary road I was rather shocked how quickly the change rushed up on me. A few months earlier I had been Driving eastbound on the same road with the needle on 142mph when I was passed by a 7series BMW like I was standing still.
Back in those days I was driving one of these.
I very, very highly doubt that. Even my 4400lb. land barge will allegedly hit 175. I've never tried to top mine out but I just went to the garage to see where I've been since the car keeps track for you.Great car.
I suspect the Vette in question had been tuned.
On a highway, with other cars on it, I'd say it is staggering that anyone would be that much of an arsehole.Is 161 mph really "staggering"?
