I did it today at 90 few cars, sunny 64 degrees fahrenhiet, dry road. I felt pretty epic also like oh hey i hope there's no cops around me now.

140 kph, which is about 87 mph. It was actually during driving lessons. The instructor told me to gun it, so I did.
Hmmm... like 80 on the M25? maybe.
on US roads, i managed 201 in a heavily modified Toyota Supra on a arrow straight stretch of road leading into the Mohave Desert.

Not sure honestly, my friend threw me the keys and we went. He had his computer set up monitoring everything as we drove, the Speedo wasnt reading correct. I let off the gas when we hit 201, cause i didnt realize we were moving that fast. Gotta say, its scary as hell. I do remember there being a significant "slow down" in acceleration as we got near 200, but if you talk to most physicists its because theres SO MUCH air resistance that you need significantly more power to break from 190 to 200 mph.
155mph in a 2000 Cadillac STS. 3am and no one on I-55. Oh, and this was my mothers car also, I didn't want mine back after that, I wanted to keep it.
I accidentaly hit a bit over 80 on the highway in my 87 Poche 944S. I try to stay around the speed limit (bright red sports car, not exactly something that blends into the crowd), and I realized how fast I was going after going by some traffic faster than normal.
I actually set my land speed record in the US... middle of the night on I-5 south in the ass-end of nowhere, southern Oregon... 155MPH in a 65 zone.
In three years of living in Germany, I never managed to get into a car that could top the ol' big-block 4-speed I set that in... I did regularly hit 120MPH on my way to work, though.

Ended up going about 83mph on accident on a downhill stretch of a local highway trying to pass a semi. I'm usually the one who NEVER speeds and uses cruise control set to the speed limit. But I wanted to pass the truck (felt like it was going slow) and as I passed it I realized I was going much faster then I realized. The main reason I use cruise control so much, I tend to misjudge my speed if I'm not looking. So I make it a point to pay attention and not speed.
