I personal had gone 143mph on my 92 LS and Seat on the passenger side on my brother 93 L at 140mph (He blew the head gasket couple days later) so please post your fastes speed you ever go on your legend. cuz i want to know how fast is the Type II engine.:rolleyes:
 
This is nothing to be proud of... Don't do it guys... I will never let my baby to work that hard...
 
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 :D. I can't wait for more suspension upgrades like full coils and front sway bar.

Never got tickets?
 
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.

i'm yet to get a speeding ticket in my legend. *knocks on wood*. I have a V1 radar detector that has saved me so manytimes.

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.

It was hard to control for me at 143 because i just had my license for 2 month. And i think I could do a little bit better at handling now.
 
I have topped the OD out, have a video of it to... but then its not a Legend.

Hey Chris how fast have you taken the GS up to? I never took it over 110. It was not a car for that to me.
 
Well in my 91LS I hit around 145ish, I was to busy watching the road. This was about 3 months after getting my license. In my 94L I have hit 137. I don't plan on abusing my current Legend anymore, I'm worried that I may get a ticket or even worse....a BHG! haha
