ive done 115 with the windows down still creepin along and thats alot of drag +300lb speaker case in the back and if your eclipse weighs 9k lbs u must weigh half that because a stock 2g eclipse is close to 3k lbs and for everyone ive done 172 in a 97 dodge grand caravan completely stock

i guess no one told you the tires they put on most mini-vans are only good to 85mph, and that the tires with blow after 120, the suspension racks after 125, the transmission tops at 135.

those are just the obvious things, its only possible if you have a highly modded van with a **** ton of work done to it, but then again with that kind of work you could make anything do that.
