A fully Snaked, Faction fit, polycarbed interceptor in a claymore gang with a max-skilled leadership pilot using mindlinks and skirmish warfare can hit 20k/s sure.
How many people in game have that available for general use? Here's a hint: not many.
It's a real PITA to manage that feat, so I better be damn hard to catch and kill!
meh, I was going to post something enlightening but just wanted to say you're wrong on that speed claim. Don't need the Claymore to hit that speed with the Snake/Faction/Polycarb Inty.
Nerf away I say

@Kane -
As the current topic of nerfage hits extremely close to home, as far as killing off small gang warfare, I feel justified in raising a stink.
Fast gangs are one of the few methods available to smaller corps (or large corps that enjoy small gang warfare) to deal with huge blobs of ships thrown together by alliance carebears. Hell, I'd even engage a blob or two in one of AGONY's speed fleets if the game didn't slideshow due to lag + 25/1 or higher odds.
CCP is moving in the general direction of nerfing things that do not need to be nerfed, while ignoring underlying issues that affect gameplay significantly more than the current "whine-of-the-month" topic.
I'm a solo Pirate, I know where your coming from but combating blobs with nanos doesn't help when the blobs are nanos.
It's a never ending self perpetuating cycle and something needs to be done, I'm not sure even the devs know what but result to kneejerk reactions to try and ba;lance things.
Like I said, I got up in arms about the last nerf where my expensive rigs turned into useless lumps over night, I then realised there are more important things to focus on, like trying to play within the boundaries presented me.
I'm not trying to be at odds with you guys on this issue as speed is something very close to my heart but it's just anopther aspect of a game which has so many avenues of combat to explore and enjoy.

Mino, you need to be very specific about what your complaining about in the op, it comes across as your ****ed off about a general Speed nerf, if it's just dictors being nerfed then I'd tend to agree with you on certain pointsbut not all.
My Faction/Polycarb Sabres still go 12km/s but then the Sabre has always been the best interdictor to fly
