I've seen 235km/h in my RX7
just over 200km/h in my Exa
And just over 240km/h in my mates VL Turbo- that was an experience, certainly not in a place that I would have chosen to open it up!
(I've got a spreadsheet that uses wheel/tyre size, diff gearing, gearbox ratios and rpm, and according to that these speeds are accurate- cos I know the speedos on my cars aren't!)

I've 'only' done 180km/h on my GPZ 750 turbo. Only time I've ridden it! Things feel a lot quicker on the bike!

Oh and all on private test tracks.....nudge nudge wink wink

250kph Suzuki Katana 1100.
260kph Kwaka GPZ 750 Turbo.
240kph Ducati 900SS.
200kph SS Torana 4 speed with 3.55 diff.
220kph plus (at least 240kph) VT Commodore V8 Wagon. Needle bouncing off end of 220kph speedo and kept accelerating.
270kph SS Torana (friends and clocked by Police).
220kph Mercedes Benz 190E.
165kph Demo Discovery 2 TD5.
150kph 2000 Defender TD5.
190kph MG Convertible.
All this not random. Time and location carefully selected with no traffic.
Quickest I have heard / seen personally was a mate on his Hayabusa with extensive mods (no engine mods) at 320kph.

The A420 is a very notorious road for nasty crashes...

I'll also add that the chap that got done is from my home town of Harrow.
