Question Fastest Vehicle You've Driven/Ridden/Passenger'd

I rode a ZX-10R today. Insanely f**kin fast. Almost scary. I took it out to an open stretch to give it some juice...looked down at the speedometer after a four second burst of throttle, and it said 145

I would get arrested in no time if I owned this thing. Crazy.

2nd fastest was a 600-wheel horsepower Nova I rode in, but didn't get to drive fast.



What's the fastest thing you've driven/ridden/rode in?

Fastest top end wise?? or acceleration???

Top end was a McLaren F1 (Fathers boss in Switzerland has one)

Acceleration was a Very very very powerful STi. 0-60 was nearly 3 flat

Only in a parking lot. He drove me around on the freeway. Hit 198 and had plenty in reserve. Had to back off because of a turn coming up, in a mile

400hp Sti.

Fastest I've driven myself was a 13 sec Civic w/B18 swap.My WRX should top that at some point in the future,though.

Actually,the fastest thing I've driven would be any number of AMG Mercedes models or V12 600s,or a Viper or 911,but I never got to really get on them.The Civic I at least pounded on.

i bought a 1967 nova and it was more of a drag car than street car...that thing was fast...no clue of its hp but i drove it to work which was less than a mile round trip and used 3/4 of a tank of gas in 1 week...i sold it aboot a month later

this is not the car but similar...the rims were cragars...not an SS...even though the trunk lid was off an SS

lets assume theres a 15 gallon tank. and you drove 1 mile round trip per day. thats a little less than half a mile per gallon (.5 mpg) no way.

A modded WRX, but I was in traffic and it wasn't my car so I never went past 1/4 throttle. Fastest I ever hammered was a B16A CRX, 14.4 slip at the strip. I hope to get my Probe or Escort faster than the CRX.

The fastest vehicle?
my father's plane doing 200 in a dive.

I've ridden my brother's repsol CBR1000RR.. easily the fastest thing I've ridden/driven but I didn't push it.

I've had other bikes up 160ish.
