Got the idea from the top speed in ecodiesels. Post up the fastest you have been in any of your Rams.

hit 105 in the shop truck ('14 RCSB Hemi 8spd) in between my small town and the city. So much faster than my Tahoe.

In my Ram Ive pegged the limiter when my wife called and thought she heard someone in our house (townhouse) turned out neighbors got a crazy soundbar installed on our adjoining wall and had it cranked all the way up.

My old motorcycle I dont know, the speedometer stopped at 180 and I was still climbing RPMs hard till I ran out of road. Id say somewhere north of 220 but not much more, they have a huge degree of error. 2003 Hayabusa, man I miss that machine.

Good material for the insurance company to check if you get into an accident for being a moron doing 100mph + on public roads.

Take it to the 1/4 mile track and mod it until you reach 100mph + traps. That's the way to go dudes.

On a completely different note the fastest I've ever been (that I can remember) is 150+ (looking at the speedometer after he hit the brakes) in my dad's built AWD Magnum R/T racing a C5 corvette (spanked him)

I dont recall, but i hit whatever the limit is in the 2500. Also learned cruise control is limited to 80 or 85. I guess that's good enough.

30 years ago, I'd be all over this, but not anymore. Tickets suck and if I were to kill a family member, friend or innocent bystander it would mess my head up way too much. I'm happy pushing the speed limit by about 7mph, but that's it for me anymore. I get my adrenaline dumps on my supercharged wave runner now-a-days :pepper: .....

Found out the hard way there was a stock 105mph speed governor on mine...against a Silverado SS lol. Fixed that. Pegged the speedo in the truck with pedal left, so at least 120 (didn't have GPS). Saw 140 in my father's '82 Corvette many moons ago. Bested that (150) in my '72 Road Runner 400. Got my Charger up to 140 but never had the room for more. Ironically, my Charger got wrecked doing 45-50mph (can't stop the assholes around you).
