Driven yourself, or as a passenger?

Driven myself: +/- 230 (on my speedometer) in my hyundai, why? Had to go to the bathroom :? hehe.. Wanted to test the high speed dubai - muscat.

Somehow I feel this thread won't be answered with all honesty by all..

As a passenger? - i did 290 in a friends X5 4.8i last yr ...... did it on Jum. Bch Rd. - after Burj al Arab..... (that was scary as hell! - never again!!!)

Thank God he has some good brakes on that X5!
