OK,Who's come close or buried the speedo?
About a month ago I had a wide open road(hard to believe?) so I mashed the motor. Got it up to 130MPH before I chickened out! It was still pulling hard enough to make me think 140mph would be NO PROBLEM. So,who else has done the wide open road thing?

During the cruise out to the WFC3 last year in St.Louis, I broke away from the lead to "open her-up" a little. I had the speedometer well past the white in the cluster. From what I figured, I was running close to 150 easily Then I simply coasted for many miles while the others caught up It was great...just ask JL

Thought that happened a month or so ago...
N/M, I looked it up on the Hampton Roads board and it was against GMRULZ and it only went to 120.

I'm not blessed with long deserted roads around here, so I've only been close. The impressive thing is how quickly my truck jumped from 65mph to 130mph. I'm guessing it was less than 1/4 mile. The Mustang GT (my buddy) absolutely could not keep up.
