145-ish on a drag strip, 135 on an empty long stretch of road in middle of nowhere in Michigan in my VW (car had more to give, I ran out of balls), 95-ish in the Ranger (started feeling pretty squirrelly).

110 in the Ranger and several F-150:s (all tuned).

160+ many times on my bikes ("cruisers", with no fairings). Several official documented runs over 165 mph at this land speed event.

Actually went 170 on the same bike in better conditions.

well i cannot top most of those lol. however, i did take a friends sea doo to its limit. 300 rotax he tuned and modded. i would guess about 350 - 400 horses. it was a rocket stock running 65- 70 mph from factory. i didnt look at speed. i was hyper focused on not sliding off. the guess was 80 mph. felt like warp 7. that close to the water and no wind shield or anything around you on pwc so it is a rush. years back i had a seadoo xp that had some mods and it i thought was fast running 60 ish. the new 300 rotax skis would eat my old xp alive..

I've hit the 135ish 140ish area in a couple of modified street cars. My FiST and my old WRX were drag/power limited about there.

As a young man I got the chance to open my old man's C3 Vette up. We saw about 155.

All numbers as indicated on the dash. No speed guns available.

As fast as a Kawasaki 900 will go, speedo said 150+ but I doubt that, it was the late 70,s I was a 10ft tall and bulletproof dummy, now my Allstate app tells on me if I go over 80.
