140mph for a vert did not think????
 
past sat on alocal hyw racing a svt vert all out

madmatt 09-20-2004 07:31 PM

Be careful man, a blow tire at 140 in a vert wouldnt even leave enough for dental record identification.

big lou 09-20-2004 07:43 PM

I thort that the vert had a limiter but it will keep moving

WaterDR 09-20-2004 08:02 PM

Depends on the year and if there is a chip installed.

big lou 09-20-2004 08:16 PM

I bet the micro tuner deleted the speed limiter.

140 in a vert on a highway - must have a death wish. That thing must of had some mods, heavy azz cars. :eek:

I like going fast, but those kinds of speeds, only at the track.

that's cool would it go any faster? i love speed. i got mine up to a hair past 145 but then my country road started becoming extremely country and had to let off, but it was still pulling. oh yeah did you have the top down? now that would be cool. i mean shoot, if you did (god forbid) wreck would it really matter if it was up or down. i would try it if i had a vert.

Jeremy 10-06-2004 06:50 PM

Glad you had fun. But that kind of speed on a higway in a vert isn't for me. I'm sure you know what could happen if you wreck so I'm not going to go into that. But I'm sure it was a rush for sure.

My 01 vert has hit 155 MPH! :cool: ..I've only done it twice since I've had it but it does get pretty scary at those speeds! :D

my coupe doesnt have a limiter and its not chipped or tuned i have had mine to 156 as per the digital speedo. kinda weird but wicked awsome. the back end starts to lift at around 150 in my car though. damn mustang aero dynamics.

madmatt 10-10-2004 07:09 AM

You guys are way too brave for me...

spike_africa 10-10-2004 07:39 PM

or just young and dumb, but i did mine on a track.
but i do admit i have taken it up there on the street well highways late at night with no one around to harm, i might go fast but i dont lendanger anyone but me when i do it.

jjtgiants 02-02-2005 08:55 PM

Man you guys are nuts! I got my vert to 120mph a couple of times and that was fast enough for me. I guess some people love speed, but it's not for me. I'm more into sitting next to a ricer at a stop light and smoking him/her from light to light.......not like that's any safer! ha ha

spike_africa 02-02-2005 09:52 PM

oh ps the cars with optinal z-rated tires have no limiter stock, cars without them do have a limiter set to something like 130? i forget off the top of my head.

Ps this thread is old

gtnumber2 02-03-2005 06:22 AM

120 a few time but thats it. i hit 170mph on my bike a few times until i saw a kid in the hospital that got hit in the chest with a seagul at 140mph. its a long story. not worth it at all.

Islander03GT 02-04-2005 09:34 AM

The fuel door and chin spoiler are clearly what enabled the 140mph run.

Or it was his horrible horrible grammar

Going that fast and risking your own life is one thing, but on the highway you are risking everyones life thats in a 200+ foot radius of you and is purely idiotic.
Not cool at all...

Well said. The fun thing to do without harm to anyone is at the stoplight, Give em enough throttle in 1st and 2nd gears to show them they would be toast after anything further. Then let off and stay cool. Next stop light if they want to try again. Well you see my point. Street racing and just showing muscle are 2 different things. I prefer to just let my little lion growl some on the street, not a full roar..

You can still kill someone at WOT in 1-2 gear. Take it to the track.

Plus you'll get all the activist groups pissed when you crash a real car on the highway and kill 8 other people. Then the ricers win.

NoKturnaL 05-10-2005 02:07 PM

this is why the damn insurance rates are way up for stangs...cause a few idiots drive em.
