Max Speed Thread (Need proof)

[What's your] Maximum Speed Thread (Need picture proof)

Hey guys, I am just curious to see what everyone's maximum speed they were able to get up to in their Yukon, Denali, Escalade, or Tahoe.

You can post what you have done before, but to make this a more interesting thread, try to show some proof (GPS reading)

I made a post about it before and its here to start this thread
Well, its a Garmin and just saves the "max speed"
That was with 3 passengers (All 200-250 Pounds each and a full tank of gas)

So if my math is correct:

4 People = 900ish pounds
2 Alpine Type R in box: 45.2 pounds
full tank of gas: (26.0 gal tank @ 6ish lbs a gallon) use 24.5 gallons because I used some driving: 147lbs

Total additional weight in Tahoe: 1092 pounds


Here it is as proof:

you seriously think he could do those speeds in his truck with chicks in there? they'd rip his ears off.


personally i don't see my Yukon as a speed machine, and would really feel uncomfortable in it at those speeds, i have had it up to like 130km/h normal hi-way driving, but i wouldn't do a top speed run in it, too unstable IMO... in my civic however, i have gotten up to 180km/h before i started floating the valves.

The fastest I've taken it was a hair over 120 on the speedo. I'll try to take a pic of my log on the DIC next time I'm tearing ass.

Tested it on the German Autobahn (No Speedlimit).
It got quickly up to 180kph, and then the speedlimiter kicked in and wouldnt let it go any faster.

And the Tahoe was surprisingly stable at that speed.

Mine is smooth as butter 100+, its the driveshaft I'm worried about.

If you're going to see how fast you can go, do it alone. For one you'll get a faster speed and secondly you're not endangering your friends lives by being a dumbass.

 

[ecordell]

wow harsh words.......all because your hoe won't go faster than 55 mph...

really.. are we going to start this childish crap again.

That wasn't meant to be an attack, just sort of a reminder that you're putting other people's live's at risk over something that's pointless. How sad would it be if someone died over trying to clock themselves in their truck going as fast as they can...accident's happen.

I love E470 for these kinds of things...

 

[ecordell]

Not trying to start anything, just read it as an attack towards someone and thought it was kind of low, I mean those guys most likely knew what was going on, but I can't say for sure, I wasn't there. Like he said accidents do happen.

i have a straight two lane road that goes for miles and is always deserted to taking the camaro out...oh wait...i sold it.

 

[afpj]

02 Yuk topped at 105 mph (limiter kicked in) This was when relatively new. I didn't own GPS then (ie no "proof"), would never try it now with high mileage powertrain. My GPS has max speed 640 mph (had it on while flying for kicks)

 

[BlizzardX23]

Since braking the speed limit is illegal...I tested mine on the Bonneville Salt Flats International Speedway around 109mph (Governor limited)..I'll try to find pics

so far, only found slightly over 100mp...but that was while towing that big ass trailer
