The fastest I have ever been in a plane is Mach 1.2, but it was a grey pointy plane that I didn't own.
My Cherokee was rocking 160kts groundspeed with a nice 50kt tailwind on my coast-to-coast. Made me very happy. Cherokee is stronk! Stronk like tank. Flies fast on chocolate bar wing!

Headed home from Oshkosh one year in the RV-10 we saw 200 KTAS (going slightly downhill) plus another 35 knots of tailwind. I was pretty impressed that an airplane I built in my garage could carry 4 people that fast...
