best know where it is pointed when you step on the gas.

145! Yikes. Nothing like being pushed back into the seat.

My personal best is only around 115-120. But I did it for twenty minutes on a early Sunday morning, a lonely 2 lane Wyoming state highway, patchy fog, absolutely nobody on the road, escaping a bittersweet visit with an EX. Pulled over later that day on windy Interstate 80 passing a Semi at 20+ speed limit.

Really wanted to get home.

Oh, it was a Subaru 4 door sedan, GL series, metallic beige, 1980, and it was a surprising vehicle: decent acceleration, stable at high speeds, and dependable on all but the worst high clearance 4WD mine roads. Standard 5 speed. Miss that car. One of my favorites.
