Poll: what's your top speed in a TT?
Mine was 165.
Plenty of vibration around 135. Probably due to worn PZeros.
I didn't have a chance to push it again after new tires.
The rush from 125-165 is simply breathtaking, even in top gear.
I find it difficult to maintain any speed above 145 because of the boost. The digital speedo just up tick like crazy.
Has any one timed 120-160 in a TT (stock and mods) ?
I'm not encouraging anyone to go out and break the law (and endanger others) just to answer this poll.

155 mph for about 30 minutes on the 15 freeway from Salt Lake to Las Vegas.
It's 420 mile trip we left at 9.30pm and got in at 1.30am with a pitstop for gas and a bathroom break. Average trip speed 105mph.

Amazing responses. Thank you.
Can you guys give some description of what it (car, vision, road, noise) feels like above 170?
(I didn't feel like tugging the wheel at all @165, afraid that it may upset the car. Tunnel vision sets in.)
How long did you maintain that top speed at a time?
Did you heavy break to slow it back down (for whatever reason) or just gently decelerate to normal speed?
And if you break moderately hard, how was the car's balance?
