When I picked up my Lemans I had it going 140. LOL it had the 308 speedo gear in it with 390's in the back. I think 140 was really around 95-100

Kinda funny running 95 and still getting passed by some cars doing 65-70

The fastest I was on a highway was with a guy I worked with in a Nova. When we got pulled over we were doing 131.? MPH. Like Brian said scares the hell out of you. You could just see the front fenders and hood shake. The guy ended up losing his license out of that mess. Good thing he lived next to his shop.

Question Brandi, Is there KPH & MPH listed on your speedo?
