    dunno in miles, but in kilometers around 250 in a car, and about 200 on a bike (although the topspeed is around 270).

    btw, 1 mile = around 1.6 km's

    Only about 100 in a car. How fast is a Boeing 747?

    The fastest I've ever been in my out vehicle is 85MPH. It's a 99 2.5L Jeep. At around 75mph it started shaking, at 80 it went away, at 85 it felt like I wasn't steering anymore. All that while the engine was yelling it's balls off at over 3500RPM. I've never been up to that speed before, and it was in a 70mph speed limit freeway at 12:00am.
