I don't know how fast I was actually going, but the ticket said 100 mph. I was on my bike...650 yamaha...my buddy broke the keys to his trunk off trying to open it..that's where my helmet and glasses were, we were toasted...leaving a stripper bar. Sooo there we were, he could not drive his car, ignition and trunk keys were the same and I had no helmet (in Va there are helmet laws).
Eventually we decided to go for it on my bike (brilliant move!). A city cop passed us going the other way, and turned around at a break in the median. Since I was bombed, had no insurance, helmet, safety glasses, or inspection sticker, I decided to lose him. We turned into an apartment complex, turned bike off and hid behind a tractor trailer until he passed. fired it up and took off again. A few more miles down the road, somehow the same cop passed us again going the other way! He almost wrecked trying to turn around. I had a pretty good lead on him, the roads were slick from recent rain and my buddy (on back of bike) was screaming STOP! in my ear when we came up on about 5 cop cars blocking the road...I yelled to my buddy asking him should we hit some backyards or stop? He yelled STOP! (again).
Anyway we stopped and the cop we had been trying to ditch came running up screaming "You thought you got away, didn't you?" I told him that I never even saw him which seemed to upset him. He was about 5'4 and got really upset when I asked him if there weren't height requirements for city cops...the other cops laughed and he turned the color of Blood...mine!
I got 9 tickets that night and spent the night as a guest of the city of Newport News, Va. That was 20 years ago.

180 KM/h in town with an Audi A8 and 240 (won't go further) on a slippy highway in a E240. Don't like aquaplanning @ this speed!

It worked out pretty well....I had to sell the bike to pay the lawyer, but he got all but the Drunk driving charge thrown out...made a monkey out of the cop (man was he pissed) It was the 1st year of the ASAP Program in Va and they were looking for "Volunteers". Upon completion of the course the DUI charge was dropped and never even appeared on my driving record.

In my old age, I have settled down and gotten wiser....today I would go for the backyards!

**Attitudx** · 12-27-2002, 07:21 AM

lol Wiser.... yeah me and some friends had a run in with a backyard, running from the cops on foot and well he met a clothesline that ripped half of his nose skin off it was nasti

If 1mph is only 1.6km/h then theseb guys don't know what speed is! wEs, go and tell them how it is here in Portugal...

**Dapper** · 12-29-2002, 11:26 AM

Why don't we know what speed is?
60mph = 100kph
120mph = 200kph
180mph = 300kph
So, what do you think is fast?

**Ranger Loki** · 12-29-2002, 05:20 PM

I hit about 160 in my Cousins Classic Vette...

But I am proud to say I fly down I-45 to Galveston at or near 120MPH in my S-10 to go fishing(who wants to wait an hour to get to the shore,w hen you can get there in 20 minutes?!)

LOL

I got going over 120mph, speedo stops there, in my stock(for now) '98 Dodge Neon ACR against a Grand Prix GTP. This was going down I-70 in NC. Buried the needle in a few other locations too!

SllyWhtBoy - Speed limit delete? Never heard of that.

**Madril** · 01-25-2003, 08:28 AM

The Kangoo @ 195Km/h ??? FDS !!

if you've still got your original window sticker, you'll see it under the details for that package (R/T and ACR.) ACR and R/T packages (96+) had a "speed limit delete" PCM to about ~130mph. 95 ACR neons had a true "no speed limiter."

**Mr Footlong** · 02-06-2003, 07:20 AM

**GVCryan** · 02-10-2003, 07:43 PM

My speedo in my ' 71 olds 442 stops at 135, and I hit that about 1/8th of the way through the run. Wonder how fast I was going.

It only has front brakes, so imagine the burnouts.

**22b** · 02-11-2003, 07:26 PM

187.9 at Jennings North Florida Motorsports Park (backstraight)
2002 Race R1 on 110 octane and race tires.

**kaniff** · 02-14-2003, 12:01 PM

115 mph down I-40 coming down Old Fort, in my 86 Toyota Tercel SR5.

My 82 BMW 528e only shows 85 mph on the clock, I know I've done 90 on the interstate. Need a faster speedo. It only does 3000 rpm at 90mph in fouth gear.
