Paul Walker liked his cars fast fast fast -- in fact, he once boasted about hitting a top speed of 185 MPH -- and it wasn't on a racetrack ... it was on a freeway.
"The Fast & The Furious" star -- who died in a fiery car crash on Saturday -- made the revelation on GTChannel back in 2011 ... while taking a Nissan GT-R out for a test spin in Japan.
"The fastest I've ever gone is 184 to 186," Walker says on the video .... and then he reveals how fast he was clocked on an actual racetrack.
As TMZ reported ... law enforcement believes speed was a factor in the crash of the Porsche Carrera GT that killed Walker and his friend Roger Rodas in Santa Clarita, CA ... although it was Rodas -- not Walker -- who was driving at the time of the collision.
Thats insane. Thats like begging to die. Its not worth the adrenaline rush. I would get out the car FAST if someone drove over 70 mph on a freeway. Hell no.
So basically he was either gonna end up killing himself or someone else eventually. 185mph on a highway is clearly irresponsible and very dangerous to all on the road. At least no innocent bystander was killed.
I have driven my people carrier (mpv) up to 200 km/h (124 mph, hill down) while returning from a German movie theater (Part of Me wasn't shown in my country). 125 mph is an average speed for a fast car in Germany and 85 mph on the right lane feels slow, even white vans are taking over you.
It requires a country with no speed limit highways, suitable road conditions, not too much traffic, other drivers on the road are used to unlimited speed and will keep right to not block the faster cars.

You know you'd die probably die anyway if you did that right
This thread is insensitive, and not to fault the O.P., but it should be closed as he wasn't the person driving. And I, for one, am not one for tarnishing the name of the deceased just for the hell of it. Besides, what does this have to do with anything anyway?

It's a reminder for people to drive safe. It shows what happens when you choose to do something for the thrill of it knowing it's very unsafe. This accident was 100% preventable. They both chose to drive unsafely and paid the ultimate price for doing so . It's tragic that they had to die but it was going to happen sooner or later tbh.
