Does anyone know what the actual top speed of the ST is. This would be top speed without governor.

I’ve seen 163-164….I tapped out. Was pulling slow then anyway. I’m definitely not stock.

I've seen 143 mph thrown around in several publications. One went so far as to say that the Interceptor was good for 145 mph. Guess they've got to be able to catch you on a long straight highway with no one within radio reach.

I know the Interceptor goes 2 MPH fastee. Kind of a teasing point when the ST was revealed.

Speedo in 2025, goes to 160 I believe, but find yourself a steep enough and long enough hill and you can probably beat that.;)
