I got up to about 120 once and that was enough for me, do not recommend unless you’re very confident you won’t die or get pulled over
It was Christmas morning, the roads were dry, I’d just gotten off working third shift, and you couldn’t see a car (or more importantly a cop) for miles, it was dead quiet. I’d just gotten the car during the summer and never had a chance to really push it. Even still, at 120, the car was starting to feel “twitchy” and I decided “… Nah, let’s not peg this, I’m good.”
That said, at 100, it felt good. Fast, but good. I wish more states in the US had higher speed limits. I get why they are what they are where I live (Pennsylvania has the best winding backroads for a drive and I’ll die on this hill), but I’ve also been out to the Midwest where it’s practically nothing but flat, straight highway through flyover states. They need a 90 or 100mph speed limit, because driving through at 60 with nothing to see but billboards and farmland takes too damn long.
From my experience, on a strait road, 160 doesn’t really feel that fast once you get up to speed. In fact, it doesn’t really feel any different than going a normal speed.
It does if your driving test involved simply navigating McDonald’s drive thru without having a SHRIEKING MELTDOWN then becoming stationary in a parking area the size of a small village
Goodness, 168 mph. I can’t imagine driving that fast.

The problem with high speeds in the rural Midwest is that the ancient Odocoileus Virginianus Assassin’s Guild will target you immediately.
