I think the dumb part of all this is a person posting openly they are breaking the law. The cops have used stuff like that to find and prosecute(sp) the person posting.
I wouldnt post myself breaking the law for sure. That would be the one thing i would be worried about, not criticism. I have the highest rated speed tires available for my truck, awesome suspension, speed limiter set at 300mph, and brakes capable of making your eyes pop out. I guess if you wanna go 140+ in a Titan that is built for it.....give me a call.

you took the words out of my mouth roy. Wasn't there a video on the internet a few years ago of a guy doing 200+ in a Ferrari or Lambo that got arrested for recklace driving because he posted his video online?

10-4. There are several instances of criminal prosecution via web posting. It's a common place for law officials to look during their donut and coffee breaks.

..wonder what would happen if he was doing 140 and rolled down both side windows......
either way, it's impressive that he can hit 140 with the Titan. We can all agree on that. However the fact he did it on a roadway with other cars (which I didn't notice at first, didnt watch all the videos) is pretty tarded. However clearly no one got hurt so no need to get too bent out of shape about it lol.
This is the fastest I've gone, and it was for about 2 hours in that speed range. Good enough for me!! Now I don't think I'll ever go faster than 100mph. Dreamed it. Tried it. Moved on.
And while I was going through my photos I noticed this picture..uhh didn't really think I was going that fast but clearly i was!!
That is not 140. His speedo is not calibrated. I'd bet my truck on it. Vid three at the end. The car he is about to run into the back of sure isn't coming fast enough to be 140+. Not to mention his 0-60 is insane.
I use to have an IS300 that was supercharged and it would get to 140 pretty easily. I've driven that car at that speed for miles in the desert, and raced at those speeds. That is hardly 140.
Stock Tune is speed limited to about 112 MPH. 140 is possible and has been done by a couple guys IIRC. Takes about 375-400 Crank HP to push a Titan that speed. Go to Wallace Racing-Drag Racing Pontiac powered Firebirds,Trans Ams and Dragsters for a wide variety of calculators to determine what is possible, given the variables of Weight, Drag Co-efficient, Frontal Area. Numbers were available here a couple years ago. I hope no one ever does run this on a open highway though.
I don't think it takes that much hp. I've been a little past 130 and still had more left.
