I was just wondering what speed people have taken their Tibs to.
I'm not not talking about racing necessarily, just top speed.
I've had mine to 220km/hr (137 m/hr). :twisted:

110 miles an hour. it was the day i got it because i wanted to see how fast she could go....
i would have gone faster, but i didn't wanna sh1t myself. i got kinda nervous. i'd rather goe that fast on a racing strip, not a public highway. call me stupid! lol

135 several times, plenty of RPM's left, but the limiter gets me...
Since the BBTB and such? Wow, it ALWAYS wants to be at 100.

haha...i've had mine up to...uh...95 or so. i'm a chicken... just know that if i'm dicking around in my car that there's going to be a cop 'round the corner. ALTHOUGH, i'm taking it to a strip this summer, so we'll see
although, my car may have been faster than that. my bf drove to tennessee and he's a freakin speed demon, so i'll have to ask him how fast he got it (he said he liked the way it handled at high speeds wink.gif)

last time i checked max speed on a tiburon is liek 125 or something around there...speedometer is off about 100 so don't think it's accurate ...people have claimed to go faster...but really it's the speedo...a tiburon will not go 140
