140 and it felt GOOOOOOOOD

truonghthe · 09-16-06, 08:35 PM

It was dam hard to control at 143 especially when you hit a bumb on the road.

Ganjubas69 · 09-16-06, 08:39 PM

Mine was perfect but again i just put on all new tires ballance & alighment

OverDrive · 09-16-06, 08:52 PM

147-149 mph at this desert raceway, scary, probley could have gone farther, but was to frighten too

truonghthe · 09-16-06, 08:53 PM

I was drop the gas and hit the brake by 143 because i remember what happen to my brother car.

This is nothing to be proud of... Don't do it guys... I will never let my baby to work that hard...

truonghthe · 09-16-06, 09:01 PM

That when I first got my license now I run smooth and steady no more beat up on my legend.

Alperovich · 09-16-06, 09:08 PM

i've gotten my car to 153mph. Almost no more gas left and one person in the car. but i'm pretty sure we had wind with us. lol. but i've hit 140-148mph all the time.

i love how the car feels at that speed, especially since i have almost all new control arm, ball joint and bushings. also Koni shock set at med and stiff springs, along with a rear sway and mls copybar helping keep the car firm on the road

. I can't wait for more suspension upgrades like full coils and front sway bar.

Never got tickets?

I have video from this years national meet of Tyler and I side by side at 150...

slick · 09-16-06, 09:53 PM

Are these all GPS verified speeds, or...?? Most speedometers(unless we are talking Ferrari, Bugatti, etc...) are really only accurate to about the 110 MPH range.

However i have gotten pulled for speed, since i've owned my legend. usaully happens with i drive my dad's car. actaully all my speeding tickets in the past 1 year have been in my dad's car, and i've gotten 3 speeding tickets in that time. all have been for going around 85mph.... I have been clocked at 120mph before, in my durango.
