Kanedog 2015-2019, thanks for the good times S&M!
125mph, 1985 in a big ol’ four door boat, it was bigger than a crown Victoria if that’s even possible. Big 429 in her. My classmates parents car. Haha, can’t believe I survived high school! Speedo was like 12” across the dash with the needle that went from left to right. We buried the needle!!! Hahaha

95 mph on a sled.
130 mph on my z1 turbo cat sled. I usually do that early mornings in the spring on Lake Isle or Lac at Anne.

when I was young I had a new 1995 mustang Boss. Came with 6lb blower. l modded it to run 12lbs boost. Speedo topped at 240km. Would push needle almost back to 0. Guessing 280-290km per.

My road glide with 131” this summer. Speed limiters removed. Did 225km once and never doing it again. Now I set speed limiter to cut out at 200km max for the big grandpa glide. It’s so fast I end up over 200 sometimes passing cars with my wife on the back LOL

180mph in a built trans am 455ho with hiway gears, 4spd, roll cage and oversize fuel tank installed, coming from Ft McMurray to Edmonton, way back in the day. During the Bechtel 500, buddy entered the $500 and I needed a ride down to Edmonton. He basically built the car for this race. So after the shift, usually up to 10 people were chipping $500 each and racing. You had to seal your drivers license in a pouch and first to the the Westin hotel in Edmonton won. I was driving, and my buddy said give her... very long straightaway, with 2 radar detectors and a rear facing detector, hit 180mph and felt like there was a lot more pedal left.

Other than that woulda been my Mustang Convertible on the Bonneville salt flats ... 230kph. 1969 Mach1 Mustang 428cobra jet with drag pack was up to 120mph(before the engine blew :( ) Had my current '16 Ram 1500 Longhorn up to 200kph and backed off. Had my 2011 ram 3500 diesel(chipped etc) pulling a 24' trailer with 2 sleds up to 220kph, south of Revy.....

But don't tell anyone, I might like to drive fast ;)

On my Yamaha FZ 750 hit 255, that is as fast as it would go.

After the supercharger was in hit 265 in the Challenger and had lots of throttle left but sunroof was getting sucked out so had to back off.

I have no idea how fast my 1980 Jimmy would actually go,but my buddy had one of the older Camaros that had the 200mph speedometer. We left the bar one night to head out in the country to a house party and I passed him on the way. When we got there he asked me how fast I was going and I couldn't tell him cause my speedo only went to 120. He said he was going 135 when I went by and I was going quite a bit faster than him! Typical broke kid. Probably running 4 mismatched tires that I found in the junk pile. May have had 1or2 at bar before heading to the party. Not really sure why I'm still alive. 😕

270km in my Shelby headed to a car show early morning with no one on the road. Found a nice long stretch. Slowed down to 100km for some railway tracks and immediately met the RCMP when I crested the hill. To this day probably my luckiest moment in my life lol

been 109 mph in a CX boat, would like the 160 ride ^^^^


Had a 2005 GSXR 1000 in the mid 200 kms south on 43 but the tunnel vision got weird....

91 turbo RX7 to 7000rpm in 5th gear, must be mid 200s as well.

Went for a quick rip in a friends 2018 Z06 and it was close to 300 before I said stop.

138mph in one of those turbine boats, and passed a moose crossing the river. Kinda spooky, but I wasn't as scared as the moose I'm guessing.

My 94 probe would top out at 220 km/h. 215 km/h with 5 guys in it. Went from Calgary to New Norway in 1 hr 50 minutes and stopped in Red Deer for fuel. My buddies eagle Talon I had up to 240 km/h. My brother had a 1000 interceptor and had it around 300 km/h. My 65 GT mustang was cool but not really fast
