Done 195 km/hr in 2008 with a 1994 Toyota camry v6 and guess what i was on cruise control Benin/Warri express road.

don't think I have the heart for that any more even with a 2012 Mercedes E Class.

I know 140 is the max for most people... but you just concluded that all those commenting above were lying...now I'm not saying you didn't or don't do 140 all I'm saying is this...if you say they are lying... then I have a right to believe you're not speaking the truth either
if only u knew the state of the ontisha -enugu expressway then you would join me to call the man who made that claim a liar. One can barely do a 60km/hr on that death road talkless of 220 claimed. Same applies to lagos ibadan express way which for now has good sections for such speeds but on aapproaching shagamu turns into a death trap that 100km/hr is almost impossible if u don't wanna wreck ur car. So my example pointed out a clear liar in the osha enugu case. But I get ur point. Its a case of logic .Cheers

In the days of wanting to be king of the roads 180km/hr. Toyotoa corolla 4W Drive.

That was the last time I clocked that speed. It dawned on me then that if something happens stone on the road, burst tire, ....all of us in the car..my beautiful wife, my little baby and my aunt will be singing this world is not my own with the angels.

Now, maximum maximum speed 120km/hr.
Average speed on journeys (good road) 90-100km/hr

Nothing to be gained with speed oh!

ignorant post. and even stupid comments.

Speed kills. Boasting about your maximum speed above what is safe or the legal limit whether true or not shows stupidity on the parts on all posters.
Some of you have families. Just hope yours don't become a victim of reckless driving.

That's how one idiot was doing fast and furious speeding upandan in my estate last Friday night because the main road was clear. The guy was just crazy, whether he was trying to see how fast his Benz could go, I don't know.
A little mistake and goodness knows what might have happened.

It was a nice car sha. grin

As for me, when the road is the clearest, I don't do more than 80km/h (very rare) otherwise Na to manage 60km/h. Abeg, I don't want to narrate stories that touch in heaven.

I used to drive a 2.2l Honda odyssey i4
For an old car that thing na jet.
I Adjusted the air intake to achieve more acceration, this old cargo does 0=60mph in just 7.4 seconds.

The top speed i have done with this ugly trickster is 175km/h along asaba=onitsha road on my p.o.p day heading to Ayamelum in the deep jungles of anambra.

I willing to hit 180 or more but before i get to such speed there is always a heavy duty truck somewhere to block the way.

I was on full 7/7 uniform. The trill was cool i am a speed freak and i never believed that baby could take it. I wasnt scared cuz it was a car i was used to.

I am not scared of speed, i always move with the rear windows fully up and the driver side down a bit. Always guaged my tyres and checked tie rod ends before any trip. Cuz u know Honda leg dey pull wella. But the back wheels are bow and that car balance.

Although over speeding always killed the steering pump with time and the car upgrades from power steering to MUSCLE STEERING.

If u had the opportunity to drive this particular odyssey you would know its a speed freak.

One day i raise the front tyres and tried to see the top speed on it. Floored it all the way. I noticed the speed has a limit. Anytime it hit 200 it falls back to 185, so all of una wdn dey do 220 abi 240 i wonder which road una for do am. And which car

If its 4 cylinder, ur engine go die, if its V6, 8,12 and above carry on.

i own and drive a solara coupe; before that, i owned a maxima - both are v6 - so i know what i'm saying..
the only difference is that v6 cars takeoff speed is faster than v4's but if you're doing a 100 with a v6 and i'm doing the same with a v4....we'll be driving at equal pace.

shikena!
