go to central california with the 5 freeway into the 99 and there are stretches that there is no exit or entrance into the freeway for over 10 miles. The road is one of the smoothest and newest u can ever have in america. Looks like the autobahn with 3 lanes. That would be a perfect and the safest place to do a top speed run. If u had a bugatti that would be the only place u can top it out over 230 mph.

I hit 145 at Firebird Raceway with my car and you have to keep your front windows down. This was the track, not the drag strip.

My car has seen the top speed limit many times but not since I put the 3.3 rear end on it. With a removed speed limiter, 6MT and the taller gears I would think you could hit 180 or so as long as you have the power to get you there.

It is possible with windows open and obviously required when u are on the race track. But if u are going to do a top speed run it is a good idea to keep the windows closed for less drag therefore have a stable car.

140... clear, open, straight road in the middle of nowhere... ran out of road around 140... don’t think it would have a whole lot more... 150 or so but would need lots more room to get there...

0 – 101 in just over 14 seconds (would be just under 14 on decent track)… that’s all I care about

60-150 mph runs are interesting as well...
