170?

Maaaaaybe.

208?

Not possible unless he had way more mods than he looks like he is capable of ever affording in his life.

I hit 146 at the I-10/I-12 split in BR on the I-10 side at 9AM in the morning on a spring saturday.

Car was smooth but would scare the shite out of you.

I've been 185 driving and 205 riding in previously mentioned car and it's stupid. I have no desire to go that fast again in something that's not a race car.

My 350z topped out at 155ish and it felt like it was going to take off.

This was young and dumb days, I haven't touched >80 in years.

Not that fast. Not without a LOT of $$$ work, well beyond the means of someone who works at Texas Roadhouse. Cooks at Texas Roadhouse can't afford Hennessy Mustangs.

Top speed of a bone stock 2011 Mustang GT is 149 mph. 2015+ GTs top out at 164 mph off the showroom floor. It's not all that outlandish.

Full exhaust, supercharger, new flywheel, maybe an upgraded cooling system to keep it from blowing...

It could be done in a 2015+ but that dude doing it? bullshite

R&T tested a '16 Shelby gt350r and it topped out at 169

Also, here is an excerpt about another mustang.

quote:

The HPE750 Supercharged Mustang is the first and only 2015 Mustang to attain a verified top speed of 200 mph. One such car recently ran 207.9 mph on Jay Leno’s Garage on CNBC.

No way. Has anyone here ever been over 150? It's scary. I'm not certain I even believe the 176. Even a heavily modded car can't do that
Ever get a chance go to Charlotte N C and find a couple of speed shops and ask around who is the fastest and his time? 176 mph would probably not be near the fastest.

I did 165 in a 2002 Trans Am Firehawk when I was young and dumb. Like other posters say, you can start to feel the lift under the nose and it's scary. Never again.

DamN!!! The fastest I got mine up to was 132 out in the Mojave. At that point it started getting that "floaty" thing going on and my "frick this shite" meter kicked in.
