On the street:
Did 150ish in my RX-7 racing a SVT Lightining that didn't know any better. I have hit 150+ with my RX-7 many times on the Interstate I really dont know ghow fast I was going because I was watching the road. If you're staring at you're speedo you do not belong going that fast.
Did the same 150ish in a 73 Porsche 911T years ago.
On the track:
I was on a slow track (Moroso, in West Palm Beach, Florida) but I was hitting 160 on the front straight and 125 on the back straight. Nothing scares you like weaving through a curve at 120 MPH.
I also did 110 through a sweeping curve on a 24' wide road in the Florida Keys with water and mangroves at the edge of pavement. On that same road I topped out at 140 on a straight away heading for the finish line.
*Edit*
Here is a link to an in car video of the 24' wide road that I raced on.

got a ride in my friends dads 2001 dodge viper gts. Went 110 on the on ramp then he hit 150 on the highway. We got off a couple exits down and took side roads back. I loved seeing everyone stair at the car as we drove by.

Not that you folks haven't had fun being a passenger, but, I believe the original question was something like, how fast YOU have personally DRIVEN...
So..., there I was, me in my Calibra rollin' easy up the A7, just a little south of Kassel, headed north. In my rearview I spot a quartet of Porsche's slowly overtaking me. Falling in behind them at about 250Kph, I propped it into 6th and slowly rolled into the throttle...

RE: Whats the fastest u have ever driven?
I drove 120mph on I-5 in SoCal with my dad and his 2000 BMW 540i w/ sports package.
I would have gone faster, but we picked up a radar signal and had to slow down because I didn't have my license (or my permit).
