What’s the fastest you’ve ever been in a car?
I’m not a very daring individual. I only joyride down a mountain when snowboarding — never racing.
So it comes as no surprise that the fastest I’ve ever been in a car was 136 miles per hour. It was in my Dad’s 1988 Sterling with my brother behind the wheel while in high school. We were cruising down a hilly back road in Georgia with some friends and decided to see how fast we could go. We chickened out at 136.

143 in my 2000 Mitsu. Eclipse GSX in Southern Utah.
My Prelude topped out around 123…
I’ve only had a chance to get up to 120 in my WRX, but I think it’s got a way to go.

120 cause I’m a chicken. Now I don’t even like going 85. Must have something to do with working in the accident industry.

Boys are so interesting . . . They do MUCH different things growing up! I have no idea how fast I’ve ever gone in a car. Isn’t that funny? I never even paid attention!

I’ve gone plaid. Just like Lone Starr.

@ Mark
We went faster than 120 in Ronco on the way to Snow College. That was awesome and stupid all at the same time.

140+ in an Aston Martin Vanquish just south of the Brigham City exit. (I got to drive it to Logan for a charity event).

I don’t think my mom would ever forgive me, so my lips are sealed! ;)

120 in my Camry on a back road in Nevada from Searchlight to the California border. When I got to 120 I thought “OK THATS ENOUGH” it was kinda freaky.

@ Tim,
No way Ronco went over 120. It would have fell apart. Plus, I think the speedometer maxed out at 100. It felt like 180 though and we really should have died that day.

35 in a Geo Metro going uphill on my way back to school with all my belongings as semi-trucks passed me laughing in scorn.
