Oh I miss my old red lx
150 plus car felt like it was floating on the freeway. Next step is to beat that at the track if I ever get motivated to finish the car

Just curious where on 680? Most of 680 is so bumpy and wavy. I remember along time ago going about 120 along it and bottoming out so hard my k-member bottomed out.
From Montague Expressway in San Jose to Walnut Creek back in the early 90s was easy to get top end races back then. Crashed once as a passenger and had 403 feet of skid marks before impact on 680 right before the Alcosta exit in Dublin, the skid marks were there for a few years.

What fun that must have been to not need one eye in the rear view mirror.

Damn, that's some crazy shit! Especially in Fremont area, there are some massive bumps through there!

About 160MPH......Back when i had my 69 Shelby GT500, i would bury the 145MPH speedometer at 4900 RPM and would take it up to 6200RPM and hold it there for a few miles. It was a Blast, the car actually liked to go that fast and felt real comfortable at that speed.

I was doing this back in 1990-1995, a new stock 87-93 would won't go past 140-144mph, we tried. We could get a SVO to do 150 easy, but i dont think they were rated that high. But a 93ish twin turbo 300zx would show up to do some freeway runs, and motor trend stated it would max out at 165mph which seemed correct to us with our results. I think I remember his speedo was digital and read 165mph, my speedo was a FMS 160 speedo and I was barring it past 160. The stupid thing I did this with stock brakes.
