Highest Speed in your All-Trac?

Road race, Auto X, or the Drag Strip

I got my GT Four over 180 kph on the way to work one morning (the speedometer only reads up to 180).

Highest speed

Postby BLOWNTACO » Sat Jun 17, 2006 9:28 pm

In my first All-Trac....did about 135 mph going down I-40. Two mustangs wanted to race around 2:30 in morning. Straight stretch, no cops and made them look silly. Second All-Trac....about 120 mph....sick V6 mustand wanted roll.....let him taste what a 16 year old car could do. Needless to say he didn't catch up at all. :D

done plenty over my speedo, to bad it cuts out at 180km, we were guessing around 230 because it was pulling for quite a while after. Hopefully i will get a mr2 speedo so i can read above those speeds. So around 140 mph i would say. But i've been around 190mph on a r1 (it felt perfectly safe) and i never saw any blurring or anything different when going that fast, stuff just flys by to quickly thou.

225 km/h in my GTS, took quite a while to get there...

230ish km/h in the RC on my way home from Vancouver when I picked her up. The speedo only goes to 180, and i had it buried to the bottom, with the rpm's still climbing. At that speed, long bends in the highway become short corners :D

Yeah, please don't ever go faster than you feel comfortable / safe to do so.
But I think the AT handles as good at 90mph as it does at 130mph -very stable at high speeds.
Then again I do have suspension upgrades.
Anyone with stock suspension want to chime in on this?

ive hit about 90 in the stock suspension (i think my springs were cut, as my car is much lower than evans (who i know is ultra stock stock))..and it is indeed very stable. steering seems to "tighten up" at higher speeds like the Z33 but i could be wrong...just how it feels.

Ive gone 110 mph on a completely stock suspention. It felt stable on the smooth surface but got a bit shifty on an uneven pavement. Yeah I have a '92 st185.

Got upto 240km/hr in my celica gt2 on the freeway. Around 2.30 in the morning, cold air, open freeway so i thought lets see what it can do. It got there very quickly and would of pulled quite abit passed the 240km/hr but it was running out off revs (7000rpm in fifth gear makes me shutter) :D
