I got mine to 115 today! I wish I would have had my camera, I have video and pics of 105-110, and video of 110, I guess I have a new goal, lol!

I've had my 98 dak up to 105 while being stupid...probably could have hit 110, but I let off. Something you may want to keep in mind is your tires' ratings too. Some may be at high risk of blowing out at those speeds. I didn't even consider that when I maxed mine out. Don't care to push my luck either:)

remeber this too, getting caught doin 110 will not be a fun time. i was stupid as all $hit when i was more into "street racing" with my sierra. i got busted doin 120 in a 35. it was not cool/smart. i had to get a lawyer and all that $hit it wasent worth it. this happend a year ago and im still paying off the lawyer now. ($2000). the ticket was wreckless driving and racing. imo stupid stuff like that just isint worth it take it from me, keep all racing at the track.

175 km/h on a nice staight open stretch, could have hit 180 but I let off. Needless to say I will never do it again....Looking back It was a pretty stupid thing to do(I was just checking to see if the jet removed limiter...I guess it did.

I'm guessing about 115, my speedo only goes to 110. I've had other vehicles well over 150 though.

Slow97dak,

I got a careless driving when I was 22 and my insurance went sky high for like 3 years. What did yours do?

I'm 17 with 2 license suspensions already on my record (from when I was 16) due to the usual speeding tickets...I bet my insurance is up there too. That's also yet another reason why I ain't driving that fast anymore. One more ticket while I'm under 18 and I lose my license for 1 year with no school/work privileges til I turn 18.

Had mine up to about 110 and let off. It realy IS scary in a small truck. What really freaked me out was that a week later I was goin' down I-74 in illinois and my left rear tire blew out.

does anyone know what the stock good years are rated too? I've seen videos of passenger cars going 100+ with a camera mounted outside, focused on the front drivers wheel. The centrifical (sp) force was great enough to actually seperate the bead. You could see about a 1/4" gap between the wheel and the tire.

130 mph right in front of a 70 road runner just to
see how fast it would go. Very scary in a little
Dak

That was with the ASE have not tried with mopar
PCM yet

The speedo stops at 110 and is easy to barry

Stock 100 110 down hill LOL

Many years ago I got nailed for 90 over in a 55
in my 69 road runner, $354 fine and lost my
license for 30 days. 145mph I could barry the
150 speedo in that car. built 383 6000 rpm was
150mph 3.23 rear gears
