my car is on stock tires/wheels(yes its dangerous).
all i have is intake, exhaust header and muffler on the car.

hit 120mph and took a picture. i didn't hit a rev limiter at
all. since the wheels are stock, the speedometer shouldn't
be off at all. the picture shows its a tad below 120 because its
hard to take a picture using a cellphone while controlling a car
at 120mph and someone just decided to cut me off crossing over
double yellow's on a carpool lane.

Dude, thats crazy. Glad to hear that you are still here, but still, not something I would want to do.

You don't have any gas...

Did he mention he was going in reverse?

:lol: :lol:

Yo Joe

which freeway were you running? The only time I touched 109mph was on the 210. And what time was this at?

i was on 605.. going south to super autobacs like 2 nites ago.. around 8pm

That's crazy. I wouldn't even wanna go that fast in a box :)

man my auto doesnt even go over 100

With the aerodynamic properties of a brick, methinks at that speed, you could lose the front end real quick and become a "jaws of life extraction nightmare".

My thoughts exactly :(

woah, freaky man

i didn't even know about the speed rating of tires. damn, i was running stocks too

You're talking about the top speed limiter (governor), not the rev limiter, right?

hit 120mph

Damn, that is like high third maybe low fourth gear on the pony....
What am I getting myself into???
Oh wait, I remember, it actually is what I am getting myself out of....TICKETS!!!

WooHoo, no more tickets!!!


Doc

I feel you Doc. The xB is a major switch from my 300ZX Twin Turbo. But I have fun driving this slow machine.

the xb is super slow.. haha man
comparing it to a turbo car? lol wow.. must be like
a BIG ___ diffference.

remind me never to ride with you... I think I stick to Speedzone http://www.scionlife.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif

the xb is super slow.. haha man
comparing it to a turbo car? lol wow.. must be like
a BIG ___ diffference. It IS. In my xB, I rarely drive over 65. In my Z, I rarely drive under 65. And yes the xB is super slow, even compared to other 4cyl cars. But I'm not ragging on it; afterall I own one!

stylis, i hope your down for some high speed action cuz i got some toys we can play with

I'm ready to play!! I'm gonna have bBted or scionjohn sport my new axel back muffler.

ive hit 120 in my auto xb coming home from el toro on the toll road. i rarely ever se cops and decided to see what the lil thing could do, as soon as i hit 120 it pushed me down to 110 tho

same here on the home run from el toro. I hit my newest high of 114mph but I also missed my exit and went past rosemead (20min. past west covina). I still can't figure out how I went an hour out of my way. I think I missed the freeway or something but I was lucky enough that there was no traffic around temple city on the 5N. woo hoo, 120 here I come
