I drove for 3 hours at 150mph straight in my BMW 528i once.

Let's just say that gas mileage suffered greatly.

manic, which country was this?

Fastest I have done was in June this year in a 2001 Toyota Corolla on TN 111 from Algood to Sparta. The road is not usually as busy as the interstates so when I saw a long stretch of road without cars, I increased speed to 104 mph for like 8 minutes or so. That is around 168 kmph. I was looking out for cops like mad because if I had been caught, I would not only get up to $400 or more in ticket, I would also go to jail as that is 34mph over the speed limit. But it was an experience!

Drive at a speed you're comfortable handling.
Your moniker though; that place must be stinking I guess.

Did 180 km (albeit briefly) in my 02 Mercedes Benz Clk 230 Kompressor Coupe a couple years back, with the A.C on and Fela's Zombie on repeat. Merc never flinched at all.

Tried 140-145 km in my dad's Tundra yesterday on the Ikom-Calabar highway with the A.C on and the beast over heated. I don dey put blame on am say him no dey service him car well, no be me go carry this matter for head at all.

The coolant wasn't circulated as needed, the water pump was faulty. We performed a cooling system flush (drained and flushed the radiator)- anyway engine is still intact, but radiator is leaking, heard this morning he ordered a new one for almost 40k and has put a restraining order on his cars.

170km/r or so on my trusted ES. Car wasn't floating but I don't think it would have been as composed at higher speeds. Wouldn't recommend.

Took my 2008 eod for a spin from ilesha to Akure... Was going 170-180 kmh.

The other day, was trying to get to ilesha before 8:00 am.

I didnt monitor the speedometer.. But I know d wife of the man I carried from Lag was crying when He told her we have reached Ibadan...

It was when I entered a stupid pothole and burst my tire, the man told me my speed was too much...

Had to replace the rear shocks.

Even a brand new tear rubber Nissan GTR will not take corners at 140km/h that's tantamount to disintegration.

Worst speed ever should be 120-130 and not just a regular sedan, I know what happened when a woman took sagamu interchange at 100km/h in a range rover discovery thank God I am alive to tell the story
