Never get away with that in California. Helicopters will have you on the local news channels before you pass the next off-ramp. People will be out lining the freeway and roads pumping their fists and cheering you on.

There is even a website that will email / page you with a pursuit alert.

 

Arizona is the best place to test your speed. Roads are made to go
120+. I have only heard one person getting nabbed from the air.
Had it up to 135 mph, very stable. Radar detector doesn't mater at
that point. At that speed, trying to slow down quickly is dangerous.
We mostly cruise the mountain roads. Like the best roller coaster
you have even been on.

 

I got mine to 162 out here in Nevada.

 

162!! Have you modified your SRT?

 

This was copied & pasted from the orginial post.
I had the speedometer up to 180 mph this morning, the tac was at 5,800 RPM and the car was solid as a rock, still pulling hard when I let off. With the car having 285's on the back, I would have been running 186 mph. Renntech tuned my ECU for 93 octane, I run 94 octane and they raise my redline to 6,200 RPM so I do think an SRT6 will hit the 200 mph mark, I got this following statement from a tire size calculator. --- When speedometer reads 60 mph (96.6 km/h) actual speed will be 62 mph (99.8 km/h): 3.3% faster. When speedometer reads 60 mph (96.6 km/h) actual speed will be 62 mph (99.8 km/h): 3.3% faster.

 

Steve- including the cost of the car and estimating labor you have put in it (if you have done work yourself) would you mind telling us what kind of investment you have in your srt6? none of my business, just curious what 180 costs- J.

 

Two quick bursts to 140. There's a short stretch of link motorway just behind where I live. Very little traffic, no bridges and a good view up an down both carriageways so easy to look out for Plod.

Still pulling at 140 so could have hit limiter but I run out of road (and courage) Took my next door neighbour on one of the 140 runs...she still talks about it whenever she sees me. Dunn'o who was more thrilled

 

When I bought the SRT6, I was driving a leased 04 SSB Xfire that had 9 month's left on the lease (OCT. 06). They were having a big weekend sale, the car had $34,500 on the windshield, "Weekend Price $29,995. I told them if they could get me out of the rest of my lease that I would buy the SRT6. They told me that they couldn't get me out of the lease, but they would write me a check for half of what I owed on the lease. I owed $7,000, they wrote me a check for $3,500, so $26,495 + $1590 (6% tax) = $27,985 for the car. Renntech kit = $2,995 + my end of shipping $45, I done the install. That ends up to a grand total of $30,925 to get to 180 & beyond. But I wish that's all I had in the car, $2,300 in wheels & tire's then look at my signature and get an idea of how much more I got in the car.

 

LMFAO........Just because I had to wait for you guys on I-75! It was pretty sweet looking in the mirror and seeing a whole string of Crossfires though........I just didn't want to lose everyone.

Actually I just hit the high side of 150 a couple of days ago up your way RPM! Going across M-61 towards Gladwin from I-75.......some jacka** in a SN95 mustang thought he could take me.......I watched him get smaller, and smaller, and smaller, and smaller in the rearview mirror!

 

Nope, I felt a little hesitation at 155 or so but then it kept going to 162 on the speedo. I thought the speedo might be off a little.
Right before I ran it on the highway I was at the Dragstrip and my 1/4 mile mph was 102 and the speedo said just a little over 100 so I don't know.
I slowed down because I was getting into the city and I like my liscence.

 

My 04 Coupe has seen 150mph twice now.
Thats some fun sh*t.

 

Had mine to 162 several weeks ago (nice, straight & long 2 lane) & it just stopped pulling from that point on so I'm assuming that my speedo must be off by a few mph's. Whatta ride! The car stayed on the pavement though it started to get that "I'm flying" feeling when I'd hit a bump over 140 or so. That was kinda unnerving so I doubt I'll be doing that again! 'Twas a lotta fun though!!

 

I will be taking mine to the www.texasmile.com event and my goal is 165 in the standing mile with the Pullies and Intakes on the car and a reflash.
