How fast have you taken an exit ramp?

Was wondering how fast I can take an highway exit ramp. I had a 97 prelude that I could easily double the recommended posted speed. In my new G coupe I've done double + 5mph, but not sure how much I can push it (and I have the sport tuned suspension w/ 19's).

Do these cars drift fairly well? How fast have you guys gone?

Go as fast as you can until your tires let go. It is slightly slower than that.

I've autocrossed b4 but not w/ this car. And why would I hit you? exit ramps are single lane.

You guys are a bunch of fools, you mean you don't know roughly how fast you can enter the exit ramps? And a bunch of pussies if you never drifted b4. You all need to go to the track. The only intelligent one here is G tHiRtY fIvE.

your post is very vague, that's probably why you got the responses you got. All off ramps are different........... is it off camber? Is it decreasing radius? Is it a double apex corner? Those are all factors which would determine entry and exit speed on any given corner.

And when I say take it to the track I mean take it to a road course where you can explore the limits of your car, not some parking lot with some cones set up for autocrossing, that's for tricycle races

i remember taking an exit ramp at 65 when it said 25mph, i guess it was decreasing radius, and my tires did skreech

i agree with everyone else, it doesnt matter. ontop of that, many offramps are different and vary, ive done double + 20 before, but thats because it was a strait line and the speed limit was 30. its not that big of a deal to show how fast you can go when you shouldnt be.

over the year ive been on g35driver ive noticed the posters are very mature, this isnt a civic forum where we can boast about how many tickets we have or how badly we killed that focus.

im not trying to flame u at all, just letting you know

Just ease into it before you push it. I don't know your driving experience and don't care, but just a word of warning, your Prelude and the G35C behave differently at the limit.
