The weather today was fantastic. I took the Charger out for a while. Saturday afternoon, no traffic, I got out on the highway and ran it up to 125 easily. Man I love that car! I tell my self I am going to baby my car, but never do!

125 is about as fast as i've gone in a Charger, it felt like it was going to fly apart.

Sounds like fun !!!

I did about 150 once in my six pack '70 Charger R/T with 3.23's and like Big stated, it felt like the front end was going to lift off the ground... Not sure how accurate the speedo was, but it was pegged.......   :icon_smile_big:

I've done 800 mph once in an F-16 and other than the G's I pulled, the Charger drive felt alot more scarier...  :o

Guess it has something to do with being 12 inches off the ground versus 15,000 ft with no clouds.............

I've also pegged the 150 on a '70 R/T, I know it wasn't 100% accurate. I can say as I remember it feeling not to scary while on the throttle, but getting on the brakes was a whole nother story.  :scared:

I've seen 194 MPH on my 2000 Suzuki GSX1300R P.O.S.(lemon) and that was fast.  The fastest I've gone in a car is about 130ish and that's good for me.  :'( I've got no balls at high speed in a car.  :shruggy: I don't know why that is but I feel more at ease on two wheels.  I guess I'm still young in my head, or stupid. :-\
