130+ in my old car, 1997 Honda Prelude on the FL Turnpike heading south to the Keys. Was floating at that speed, adrenaline rush to the max. 110 in the A4 but once I chip in a few days, I'll test top speed on the way back to Miami if I see an open road.

I topped 165mph in my MR2 Turbo, on the M60 in the UK, and around 130ish in mt A3 Tdi redeye, (superchipped to about 160 bhp, but shedloads of torque), and on water, only been about 40 knots on a norsafe Jet boat, (300 bhp cummins deisel), when I was the FRC driver, out working offshore in the Persian Gulf. Managed over 500mph when sat on a passenger plane.

Back in highschool the top speed was 86MPH in an '86 Civic Si Hatchback... and it was as scary as ****!! The whole car rattled!!

Now... 155mph on my ZX6R
And... 132mph in the A4 (it needs to go faster!!!!!!!)

Weird question... what are the chances of swapping a 6 spd. tranny into a B5 1.8TQ??? (such a thing??)

the chances are slim to none....but you can swap a 2.8 tranny into there, it's a direct fit and it'll let you get up to probably 140...it's also stronger than the 1.8 tranny

160mph in my A4. Driving on A60 between Belgium and Germany, it actually felt as if I were doing 95mph. Drivin like I'm the only one on the road with loaded guns but careful.

Motorcycles count, but only if you don't dress up like a Power ranger!

Power Ranger?


Motorbicyclist!

Just hit 133 in my car the other day on I-95. Still had more to go but those cars were getting a lot bigger too fast, heh.
