A body top speed

In the late 90's I made it from Tucson to Phoenix in 18 mins. I had a 1970 more door. 225 two barrel, 2.76 rear gears. Used almost a whole tank of gas. That car would hold second gear until 95 mph, with the pedal to the metal! Shifting in to third felt like a nitrous shot! Car also ran at the top of the suspension, made it interesting to handle.
