You were rolling approximately 141.9753086419753086419753086419753086419753086419 75308641975308641MPH
Of course, that's ONLY an approximation...

On the street:
Did 150ish in my RX-7 racing a SVT Lightining that didn't know any better. I have hit 150+ with my RX-7 many times on the Interstate I really dont know ghow fast I was going because I was watching the road. If you're staring at you're speedo you do not belong going that fast.
Did the same 150ish in a 73 Porsche 911T years ago.
On the track:
I was on a slow track (Moroso, in West Palm Beach, Florida) but I was hitting 160 on the front straight and 125 on the back straight. Nothing scares you like weaving through a curve at 120 MPH.
I also did 110 through a sweeping curve on a 24' wide road in the Florida Keys with water and mangroves at the edge of pavement. On that same road I topped out at 140 on a straight away heading for the finish line.
*Edit*
Here is a link to an in car video of the 24' wide road that I raced on.

my friends dad races porsche's. he took me on the track one day... down the front straight we did 165mph. he has fully rebuild his engine to a 3.8 with motec... i will get a ride in it this year too 
he said it should hit between 170-175 down the front straight.
p.s. i have a friend who races e30 bmw's he is one of the best e30 drivers in the country... really fun to drive with him too... i have done 145 across a floating bridge in seattle area...
