Seriously, um, I think I've gone about 122 in My ralliart. I was late for work. I looked down and saw my needle over 120 and realized that I was coming up on a possible cop spot so I slowed down. Anything over 120 is too hairy for me.
Also, I heard our tires are rated at 130 but I see someone already posted that. A tire blowout at 138 mph could cost you your life. Not worth it in my book.

205kph in my ES and 225kph in a buddy's RA!
in the RA havent lost to anyone except for a modded sh1tvic who slowly crept up at that speed
in my ES, i surprised a lot of people but i got wasted by a few cars... not a highway monster.

by the way for a stock RA i don't see how it's possible to go any faster than 225kph as the car was in the redline by that time... so unless its modded... no way. altho in the ES its the opposite.. it stops accelerating before the redline, 120hp just isnt enough to make you go faster! lol

Lets see I blew past my boss and his wife. Who were in a 2004 rental maxima 3.5 on I75 going more than 135mph. With 4 people in my car. My girl friend, my bosses borther, and his girl friend in the back seat going to the detriot auto show. The evo wing really adds to the stability of the car at high speeds.. The friest week I had the car I was showing off with my best friend and had it over 130 and it was a lil scary with the stock spoiler. But with that Real Evo Wing 130+ felt like I was only going about 90mph. Not sure If now I'm more use to the car or if that wing really helped that much.

I went SRS !!!
I dont know how much that is, but the needle was on the SRS LED and the RPMS was a little over 6K, I pretty much think I couldnt possibly go faster than that.
I estimate about 230 KM/H that is about 143 MPH, since the top marked speed in the speedometer is 220 KM/H. WOW !!!
It was stupid, and I wont do it again, I just felt I had to do it at least once

i dunno why people are so offended that i dont try to race my ralliart, am i the only one that thinks its just an sporty economy car? come on, a ton of guys on this site have evo's, those outperform the ralliart in every way, shape and form, why is it so hard to believe that the performance of the ralliart isnt particularly impressive to me?
i'm sorry if we view things differently, it shouldnt really bother people, anything positive or negative i say is about a car that i do own, i just think i look at it a little more realisitcally, i swear some of you guys remind me of the stereotypical riceboy who gets an economy 4-cyl, adds some body enhancements, bright paint and a fart can and all of the sudden its a race car.

I was just curious and traffic was pretty spread out on on open road so I just stretched her legs, until a car on a side street pulled out ont traffic really slow i swerved to avoid it, hence causing me to lose control of my highly modified turbocharged civic and hit a tree straight on. I broke both of my legs, shattered my ribs, and suffered a severe concussion which put me in a coma for a week...........Yeah, and since my accident I havent been able to drive stick so I am forced to drive auto. So yeah dont speed like that.......enough with my sad story sh*t. Top speed in the RA, 114
