Speed survey

[nitro_rat]

The car I was running with must have had it's calibration off then too.

Unless it was a police car with a Certified 140MPH Speedometer then yes...

152 at Sebring Race Track in my Wil Cooksey Z06 with Andy Pilgrim of
Corvette Factory race team driving. Sure was a thrill.

[Mugs914]

Lessee...

155+ in a turbo Porsche race car at various tracks out on the West side of things.

135 or so on I-15 in So-Cal in my big-motored 914 street car (Had it over 120 on a stretch of two-lane out here in Texas).

140 give or take on my ole Kawi cafe bike (I-15 again).

On water, only about 60 or so on the Colorado in a friend's Mercruiser V-bottom years ago. Don't remember what kind of boat it was...

And finally, 47 mph on a stand-up skateboard. There was a long, smooth dead end road where I grew up and we used to skate down it paced by a car to determine our speed. He also saved us from having to walk back up...

The winner is 47 on skateboard...

Yeah, 327's would wind up. Mopar 340's too. I guess the ford 302's would if you could keep head gaskets in them
