I would believe so, I've got mine up to 109 or so going down the altamont pass, lol, otherwise I've never got it over 95, WOT on the freeway.

The motor could probably do it, its just the wind resistance is incredible force against us. Besides were ment to go slow and look good doing it...

Ummmm, they are not speed machines, who cares how fast they go. You planning on running yours on the salt flats. You could go for the record of fastest car with the most drag.

after 95mph it gets a little scary, but thats not to say if there wasnt always traffic on the freeways in southern CA(even at 2am) I wouldnt try and go faster. Just got to watch out for the people around you. I look at it as much more of a sunday afternoon>curvy road>crusing car, corners are fun...

I raced another Box on the parkway tonight, I had the gas pedal pinned for a while but couldn't seem to get past about 108, its not a level or straight road though.
I;m pretty sure i got it up to 115 one time, but it wouldnt go tonight.
(p.s. i usually do not race or speed excessively, only once in a while)

from about 70 not that long, faster than the other guy, who appeared to be stock, when I stopped speeding and he finally caught up he pulled along side and started clapping. then I noticed his seatbelt light was flashing. he was flooring it and he wasnt wearing his seatbelt!
