For those who dont know I did it in this

really wasnt all that scary. Drove nice and straight, no real shakes or shudders, lots of wind noise though.

I have a 96 and it will do close to 100mph.  It will push the needle a ways past the 85 mark on the spedo.

the speedo hit 73 in my zuk this morning. its an 8valve, but i know the speedo reads slower than its actually going, i just dont know how far off yet. anyone know how much 31's will throw off a speedo? maybe around 5 mph? tomorrow i'll really push it to see how fast i can go, im hoping i can hit 90.

Ive hit over 100 in my Tracker on the highway before.   There was no wind.   I had a friend behind in his Saturn, thats how I know it was over 100.   I buried the needle, but the rpms just kept going.

there is no shame in topping out |removethispart|@ 90mph considering it's a 4 popper doing the motivational duties :)

I have a jeep with the 4.0 and it is hard pressed to hit 90 LOL
