What’s the fastest you’ve ever driven?

220 km/h

In a car or on a bike??

About 290 on the A14 in Germany

200 kmph on autobahn. Once in a Seat Leon FR towards Stuttgart but it felt very light on the front at 200 and I wasn’t happy at all about that speed. Backed off quickly after that. Second time in a Audi A6 avant (current version) outside Frankfurt. Very settled and comfortable at 200. Could have pushed on but decided to back off. Was still getting overtaken on the 5 lane section approaching the airport at that speed.

210kph t'was exhilarating

My E39 M5

100mph. I know, you're all laughing now 🐌. Thinking about it now, that's 160kmh, a speed I would never consider doing. Although I accidently hit 140 in an E-Class, and only realised it when I looked at the speedo.

Now, bear in mind, the 100mph was in a Cortina Mk3 1300 cc, so a car that wasn't built for it (and that was VERY obvious), but I was going down a very long and wide hill somewhere outside Castleisland, if memory serves. It was in 1977, so can't say how prevalent radar was then. It was time to throw out the anchors when I saw two road signs in the near distance : Narrow Road, and Bends Ahead (obviously they were graphics but can't show them here). As soon as I got the car down to 60mph, I swore I'd never do that again.

I've had a GPS 250kph in a lightly modified RX8 one night in Mexico. Felt very stable, brakes were still effective. The only real concern was something else crossing into my path.

Max speed on various bikes - not all that interesting to be honest. The fun is the non straight bits and the bursts of acceleration between them

160km/h down the M1.

I look back now and i think what a fecking idiot i was. Absolutely no need, and was clearly not skilled or in a car equipped for such wrecklessness. Just a young idiot. Grateful i didnt make a mistake that could of been fatal.

282kph on the A11 between Berlin and Gross Doln in an Audi S8. Man i miss working for Audi 😜

There was still plenty left in her too. Traffic conspired against me.

Me and my two brothers used to have a competition coming down that hill about who could get the fastest in our company Hiace.

My brother got 105 mph fully laden.

When did ya land?

hhhhhhh.....I call bs......those things are limited to 155mph...... I know because I raced one on a ZZR1100 that I was doing indicated 286kmh (176mph) on, the second day the M6 between Athenry and Ballinasloe was opened. Was fair scarey... but I met the BM driver later by weird chance and I asked why he stopped going for it and he told me about the limiter on all of them.

Tomorrow's yesterday

Sweet jaysus, I did 70 in a company Hiace when I was 20 an 'invulnerable' and it frightened the crap out of me. The thing felt like it would lift off / roll over / explode at 70mph.... 105mph.... I'll have nightmares.

Back in my student days we had a race down the M5/M6 back from Alton Towers. Think the Renault Clio I had at the time was only 1.1 or 1.2 so the circa 95MPH (153KPH) I was doing almost the whole way was seriously drinking up petrol..

Limited from factory, but if you know how to remove the limiter it will do more!

I think around a 170-180 Mph on a Yamaha R1 on the M7.
