Damn Brian, sounds exactly what happened to me when I was 18. Five of us in a clapped out 72 Dodge Charger. Was racing a Camaro to Boulder CO, my buddy was driving (he was a bit, how shall I say it, insane), got it up to 120 on the speedo, passing on the shoulder, it was nuts!
I would highly advise againest any top speed runs unless and until your car is ready for it....brakes, suspension, seat belts, etc. But it is fun.... had my wife's '99 Concorde up to 110 once, could not believe how nice it drove and it felt like it had a little more left.
