How fast do you guys drive on the freeway/highway?

[Mervyn]

50-55mph here, but state law requires 65mph when driving [depending on weather condition]. Yes, I'm really scared that I'll start sliding like crazy :bite:

[nissantuner22]

878.8 miles per hour, with a headwind. and NOS. Lots of NOS.

[Ritz S14]

Speed limit is 65.

s14 - 60-65mph. Gotta watch out for pot holes, and road conditions.
s13 - 65-70. The motor loves to rev, so I tend to beat it a lil, but the tires are bald.
530i - 75-80. Everythinng seems to feel stiff on this car. When I'm going 65, it feels like I'm going 40, so I drive 80 to make it feel like I'm going 65. Although it's slower than my S14 seems like a bit more fun to drive.

[ALTRNTV]

75mph.

[rps13kid]

80mph.speed limit is 65

[w0nderbr3ad]

really depends on the flow of traffic. but i usually drive 75 in a 65mph

[mistaanime]

80-120 mph..depends where...50-60 in the rain..also scared of slipping. heh

[Phlip]

70-100 on the highway, depending on traffic, I am on the high side of that if I am lucky enough to find myself behind a state trooper.

[unwed_transient]

75-80

[monk]

depends where im driving, usually drive the flow of traffic. really no point of going over the speed limit if you dont have to

[TheTimanator]

something close to the speed limit. I thought this thread was a joke...

[ThatGuy]

I have to keep it below 88mph. If not I might end up in an '80s movie.

Great Scott! This thread is completely ludicris!

[lucky7]

75-85. traffic is usually flowing around 80-85mph through detroit during the day. speed limits are either 65 or 70mph.

shit, monday im driving down to cincinnati. i dont mind it, but once i hit the ohio border i have to drop speed from 85 - 70. that fahking sucks. ohio cops have nothing better to do.

[KA24DESOneThree]

50-55mph here, but state law requires 65mph when driving [depending on weather condition]. Yes, I'm really scared that I'll start sliding like crazy :bite:

:ghey:

I tend to go 75-85 cruising on the freeway, 55-65 on two-lane highways.

[KiDyNomiTe]

70-80 regularly, 80-120 if im trying to get somewhere.

80-to whatever it takes me to when I remove the speed limiter...

My car is rock solid and I can easily go 90 without noticing im going that fast (unless theres traffic of course), but with what I'm driving right now its so unstable over 80... Good alignment and big wheels/tires is awesome.

[SimpleS14]

70-80 , when its fresh snow on the highway....40-50

can't believe some of you guys go 100+

[Mervyn]

And your car doesnt slide at those speeds!?

[ThatGuy]

Where the hell are you driving? There is no way you should be sliding at 65-70mph unless your tires are polished marble, or you are trying to make 90 degree turns without slowing down.

[wootwoot]

I go 65-75 on the interstate depending where I'm going and the urgency of getting there. Gotta get that gas mileage- If I go 65 I get close to 30mpg

[SimpleS14]

lol @ ThatGuy's post


I don't slide at such speeds...mainly because you can feel when your car wants to break loose...at that point you ease off the gas...

[ALTRNTV]

I pegged it last night coming home. Scary stuff.

[p11driver]

with 2 speeding tickets, i drive 65-70 everywhere unless im hurrying to get somewhere which isnt often. i make sure to stay on the low and blend in cause i dont like to attract the police.

[DaPCWiz]

Good alignment and big wheels/tires is awesome.
yesss that' makes a huge diff!!

My speed varies with my mood and urgency. If I'm tired, I'm at cruise control at speed limit. If I'm energetic I'm doing 70-95. If I'm bored I'm hitting the speed limiter... etc. Also depends on the area... If I know it well, where the cops generally sit, etc I tend to go faster. If I don't know where I am, I keep it slow.

[infinitexsound]

70-75 in a 65 zone.....

but usually i drive like anyone else.... like an asshole..

[SochBAT]

65-70 MPH.

Better Safe than Sorry.

I mean, cmon, look at IDBDan!

[IAM_SO_sLOw]

i go around 85 on the freeway....

[kuramaya]

I dont know my Speedo only goes to 180KPH

[KA24DESOneThree]

And your car doesnt slide at those speeds!?

Vote to ban. Reason: Excessive stupidity.

[YakuzaS14]

77mph

[wootwoot]

I just remembered my car doesnt have a speedometer currently. An ESTIMATED 70mph

[Andrew Bohan]

usually 75-81mph or 83-85mph

i can't go 82 in 5th gear, cuz i'll be at 3800 rpm and my secondary injectors will be turning on and off all the time, causeing jerking and hesitation.

[pRaHjeC]

63mph so as not to attract the SDPD's attention

[rockinpandas]

i can only go 114 or whatever cuz i still have my limiter

[240sxDann]

depending on traffic....55-floored. :mephfawk: :bash: Its a bad habit I just can't seem to break....:nono:

[jobestudios]

Speedlimit is 60, I go between 64-67 (62-65 actual MPH)

[King 240]

depends on which car I'm in.
The 240, depends on the music I'm listening to, techno or rock I'm usually over the speed limit.
BMWs I hang around 80-90

...thank you for V1 radars :)

[Indolent]

I just remembered my car doesnt have a speedometer currently. An ESTIMATED 70mph

same ish , lazy to fix my Digital Cluster

[P4rD0nM3]

i70 70mph: I go 70-115mph. I got a ticket when I passed a truck and there was a state trooper infront of it, on the bridge, on the shoulder, on the other side of the highway and on the opening of the biz. road. I got owned bad, it was my fault...I was being stupid. Now I only drive around 75mph-80mph on a 70mph road, still fast though. I need to stop this habit.

[WERDdabuilder]

80-85

[theicecreamdan]

100+ in a 75mph section of Nevada in my 56whp corolla. scary, loud, and 3am = fuck this

70-90 through oregon where they dont like people going over 55... but it was 20* out and I have no heater.

California I dont go much over 80

Big truck 55 anything over that is too expensive.
Cadilac, just a little faster than the girls.

Airplanes... fuck that, took me three days to fly from San Diego to Boise.

[Toshiro]

Cruise at 80 in my 240 usually. And if theres traffic around 50 or 70.

[sncs14]

depends on: what hwy, where i'm going, how late i am, what mood i'm in, how lucky i feel , who i may be following, the music i'm listening to, or all of the above combined. so anywhere from 55-100ish, but usually closer to the speed limit to avoid tickets.

[NemeGuero]

72 is cruising.. 85 when I'm bookin' it.

[Nan Desu Ka?!]

65-80 depending on traffic. 90+ occasionally depending on road-mates and if there are no cars in sight. funny thing is, usually when im alone i tend to drive slower at night... dunno why. i suppose its cuase of no traffic flow to keep pace with?

[Andrew Bohan]

usually when im alone i tend to drive slower at night... dunno why. i suppose its cuase of no traffic flow to keep pace with?

i think that's probably right. or maybe cuz you have nothing to prove when you're the only car :2f2f:

[iwishiwas-all*]

ha on the florida turnpike if your not doing atleast 95 ull get passed, when its not rush hour of coarse. lol usually stick around 90 on that , I-95 mabe 80 cause there are alot of cops on 95 gotta be able to slow down quick

[KiDyNomiTe]

70-80 , when its fresh snow on the highway....40-50

To thatguy and other talking about mervyns post re-read simples14s. The way your punctuation is it seems as if you mean 70-80 whe it is fresh snow on the highway.

can't believe some of you guys go 100+

Whats wrong with going 100+, only bad part is breaking the speed limit but honestly sometimes it happens by mistake, trying to overtake someone, not going to do it at like 20% throttle, before I know it I'm doing a buck ten.

It also highly depends on traffic around me, if everyone is going 80 (which happens quite a bit) I'm probably going 90. In the KA I went like 70 cuz after that it got rediculously loud... SR is quiet compared to my KA days.

[Irukandji]

Can't get another speeding ticket...


I go around 65-70mph, 70-80 if im late for something important.

[ThatGuy]

The original poster did not mention snow in his post. So my comments still stand.

[idiot goes sideways]

german highway 240 "KMH", (no not miles) when got no speed limit (still no problem with the police)
austrian highways 200 kmh, speed limit 130kmh
streets 100 - 200 kmh, speed limit 100kmh

long story short in austria the speed depends on the mood of the driver and the lunchtime of the cops.

sorry for spit it out but 65miles?!!! man that sucks! our 50ccm motorcycles run faster than that (okay with these things you can get some problems with the police)

so i dont wont to penetrate you with my bad english, i just think we have more fun on our austrian streets than you guys in the usa
:bigok:

[Var]

In the rain, 50mph in the vette = hydroplane for miles at a time. not fun

When it's dry and late night, i cruise around 90mph. Sometime i downshift and hit 140 real quick then slow down again.

During the day in traffic, unless i get road rage, i go with the flow of traffic, usually in the fast lane.

[wootwoot]

65mph is 200kmh so it isnt THAT bad. Good gas mileage =)

[ThatGuy]

200Kmh is 124mph, wootwoot. Check your numbers. :bow:

[Var]

65mph is 200kmh so it isnt THAT bad. Good gas mileage =)


I think you were just kidding..right?

65mph= 107kph

[idiot goes sideways]

65 mph is 200kmh ???????????????????????????
65mph = 104,6 kmh

[wootwoot]

I'm so confused right now. 100 kilometers an hour is equal to 62mph atleast isnt it?! To much eggnog.

I honestly dont even know where I got those numbers.....

[S14DB]

88mph

[theicecreamdan]

65 mph is 200kmh ???????????????????????????
65mph = 104,6 kmh

104,600?

damn euros and their backwards decimals/commas.

[idiot goes sideways]

damn euros and their backwards decimals/commans.

YEP!!

[kuramaya]

Breaking Traction at 100KPH is always fun

[airsoft]

i don't know my mph...

100 - 120 kmh

S15 gauge cluster in my 89 240 woot.

[AllenRPS13]

70-85mph

[95zilvia]

I was raining like crazy. So I drove like, 40 on the freeway, damn, that crap is scary, everytime I hit a puddle, I thought I was gonna blow up.

The lightning didn't help either, and oh, I have no heater, so my windows were super fugged up.

[S13_OneVia]

I usually drive the flow of trafiic too, which is usually 60-65mph. Stock SOHC KA here, I have hud but it doesn't work all the time, so I usually try to stay under or at 3000 rpm, but if there's very little traffic I'll cruise at about 75mph, but that rarely happens.

[skatanic28]

75ish in a 50. i get bored going slow. apparently so does the rest of the traffic.

[SilviaNinja240]

around 120kph-ish, just like everybody else

[mamchayle]

40-60 around town 75-100 on hwy

[Annoying Eric]

Just to let everyone know i just hit 160+ mph on my bike in light traffic. A KID on a newer 750cc kept passing me on the straights but i was destroying on any turns.. So yeah...

[Al_S14]

i try go with the flow oif traffic or no more then 17 over speed limit since 20 or more is wreckless.

Love doing lil sprints of 110 for few sec then slow down, at night with no traffic usually . or dump it in 3rd to pass some retard then once hit 100 then slow back down.

[BoNyG515]

60-65 mph cruising on the freeway, 100+ when im pissed, and 115+ in my protege going down to socal alone on the road on the 5 with my lights off sometimes haha

[jessfx]

70-90 on a 65 limit, 65-80 on a 55 limit. i've been trying to slow down... really.

[Apossiblehybrid]

usually anywhere from 75-80mph

[ManoNegra]

Usually 13mph on the 405 but when traffic permits, I like to keep it around 70. Guess the novelty of a turbo wore out a few years ago.

[BlackSunshine42]

Hell if I know the Speedo only goes to 110.
