never driven above 130mph myself, but I've been at c.150mhp in Mr. Bookers Skyline (bye bye Supra, I think it was Dan? :wink: ), and between 150mph and 160mph in two different Supra's.

Strangely enough, felt remarkably relaxed at all those speeds from the passenger seats, and they were all done three-up. :D

I have done 160+ in the same Saph as Miniwilliams some time ago.

I have had my 3dr on the limiter in 5th @ Bruntingthorpe which was showing 170 odd on the clocks but I have no idea what the true speed was as the timing gear was in my mates Saph at the time. True speed was probably 125. :lol:
