Yeah...I've had mine to 100mph before (on a legitimate track)and, um, VERY unstable, at least in stock config.

Try doing it on a lowered suspension and with a rear sway bar. Those problems are a thing of the past for me now.

Mine, on stock suspension, was quite smooth at 115mph or so. El Mirage, so yes, it was legal :) Don't believe it was smooth? I'll look for the video and post it.

Tomato Sweet rex! 1st gen, don't see those around much these days. I'll be working on an 88 HF, and will be pushing to get it to 55-60mpg. Wish me luck!

Tamago Nice way to bring it back to topic ;) Nice tranny.
