Post by: Larry on April 26, 2009, 12:02:48 AM: In the air or on land? In air Iv been over 1000mph in the TA. The mach number was somewhere in the 1.50 range. On the ground Iv been up to 223mph while going down a hill in panzer in the AvA. If I didn't keep hitting hills I maybe could have got a lot faster.

And in a car 155 was highest ticketed speed i got. car was 1969 cuda with a 426 hemi l7 with Classic Performance Products complete Suspension kit. upgrade carbs and few other parts. Sold car 1980 to buy first house. Still kicking myself for selling it to cheap. But can't imagine feeding twin 4 barrels at 4 or 5 dollar a gal,

Yeah, that's a great shot. Not mine btw. Someone took it at the San Francisco airshow and this is one of the opposing solos doing the nice little sneak up move from behind the crowd. The plane's not supersonic just to be clear. He's actually transsonic but he'll still arrive with a big surprise.
