I had a 4 cyl Mitsubishi Galant that I hit 130+ mph. Young dumb. It wasn't maxed, but close.

73 Pontiac Trans Am sd455. Had it doing 155 on interstate and backed off. It was getting unstable, lol. My brother had a 454 72 vet. He could take me 0-60 but I had him on top end.

Ehhhh, a C5 Z06 is better bang for the buck IMO. Friend of mine bought a lightly used one for $22,000. Put a few thousand more in it and it makes 600+ at the wheels on spray.

My fastest is the truck I'm currently driving. Bought it brand new in July, and its the first new vehicle I've ever purchased.

2014 Ram 1500 Sport R/T regular cab with the 5.7L V8 Hemi and 8 speed transmission in it.
0-60 is around 5.5 seconds
Fastest I've gone in it so far is 110, the speedo maxes out at 120 though :\

Those also have a looser torque converter and 4.10 gears, IIRC. Cool trucks for sure, run high 13s stock in the 1/4.

If this is about 2003ish model year this is the correct answer. Old car cast episode with lingenfelter was pretty interesting.

Yes, 2001-2004...came with the 5.7 LS6. Doesn't take much to put them in the 11s...and they handle decently.

136 is not that impressive. I did 130 in Friday in my 7500lb truck

I mean we can debate what actually is at the end of the day. I like the C6 more and they're cheap as shite.
