#6 on the list is a 2013 Ford F15 (I'm guessing a Ford F150 Raptor) clocked at 150?! I didn't know a Raptor could reach those speeds.
Stock it will do 160 (actual).
My '03 5.4 Lariat FX4 will do (GPS measured) 120. Doesn't take long to get there, but it's not a relaxing experience.
I was noticing the same thing: wedged between 156 and 150.I could have been #6 but preferred not to get caught, and don't live (or drive) in Texas.
The ONLY reason why I ever went that fast is because the Stinger is just as smooth, stable and quiet at 155 as it is sub 100. Confidence inspiring in every sense of the term.Wow...and with its higher center of gravity, definitely wouldn't be the safest thing to be in while going 150+.
You're telling me that those bikes were going 160+mph.... and PULLED OVER?
In some states here if you get caught doing those speeds your car is impounded and then crushed. Although i think they may have no riscinded that law recently?Jail time likely. Car/bike impounded certainly. A guy on here told his story about passing as soon as he got on the freeway, and when he looked down he was surprised to see 108 MPH and descending. The cop who pulled him over said he was going faster than that, and impounded his Stinger. Of course, I think from the way the story was told to me that the cop had an attitude. But that just increases the danger of bad things happening.
(I once got a ticket for not stopping at a STOP sign: I saw the cop car on the other side of the road as I pulled up to the corner of a "T" intersection, looked both ways, went as slowly as pedestrians do, and proceeded around the corner. He "U" turned, flashed his lights, walked up and told me the evil news. I was seriously annoyed. When I explained my understanding of a functional "stop" to be as slow as walking speed before proceeding, he said: "Actually, sir, the ordinance requires a 'back rock' on the wheels and a complete stop for at least three seconds." I objected that nobody negotiates stop signs like that, nobody. And he simply handed me the citation. I appealed it before a city judge, who was likewise unsympathetic. That was when I realized that cops in West Jordan are revenue gatherers and I de facto hate all traffic cops around here. I still "stop" the same as always if they are not around; but I look for cops all the time in this town, and I'll never "stop", when one is around, without that "back rock and full three seconds".)

Props to Porsche for top honors.
Funnier than hell story for me. I was doing over 100 mph on highway 1 in 55 mph zone but it’s a stretch where you can see up road for a mile no access roads etc. ocean on one side sheer mountain on other. CHP was hiding behind big dirt pile. Got me on radar and he was laughing when he walked up to car. “Trying to see how fast it will go?” ....yeah. “ Ok please slow I down and be careful”. Thank you for your service sir! “Have a good day”. ....I’ve really been lucky with CHP. They have tough job and I always them with utmost respect. Think they laugh when they see almost 60 year old dude flying down road doing 100 mph plus.
Never got pulled over in ticket magnet Kia.
That’s sort of tired one. I like this short clip better.
