Which route 20? And you'd probably be better off asking in the forum of the locale in question.

The outboard GPS registered 141 when it fell off the dash of my GTO.

135 on my '88 Hurricane. I sat up from behind the windscreen and nearly pulled the front wheel off the ground, due to my "big as a sail" build.

85 in a tunnel hull drag boat. I remember thinking that if a turtle surfaced in front of me I'd be airborne instantly. All the hydroplane crash videos I'd ever seen were running through my head.

62 on my waverunner.

~160 as a passenger with Dale Earnhardt driving a two seat stock car in the early 80's at a friends and family event at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Probably around 120, speed is fun, but speed in tight corners is more fun, so my shenanigans rarely see speeds over 80 mph.

155 in a 1976 Chevy Blazer back in 1980 on the I-5. My speedometer did not go that high but my friends Ferrari did.
Took my bike up to 150 on PCH, felt safer than the truck did at that speed.
