1091 knots over the ground in an F-18A+ at altitude (14,000ft). That is 1254.6 MPH and about 1.75 times the speed of sound.

670 knots (770 MPH) at the Naval Air Station, FT Worth airshow in 2006 at 100 feet altitude. About 5 MPH of breaking the sound barrier over the crowd.

Cars?....about 147 on the main drag in front of the Cecil Field Naval Air station in Jacksonville , FL in my then new 1994 Corvette.

Cobra?...I don't know yet...should be on the road in Feb.
