I can only keep 100% accuracy up to the ~90ish range...and then it starts slowly but steadily decreasing.
As simple as it is, this site is awesome for me. I like setting my own records and then trying to break them.

The typing test instruction test is the best to measure your regular typing speed. There's no names, no quotes, and no double dashes with three periods and a comma after them.
Net Speed: 21 WPM

LOL more than twice as fast with a finger stuck in my mouth... kinda sad actually :(
yeah, the test instructions are good if you like straight text!
Test completed - here are your results:

Gross Speed: 67 WPM

hey thoop, your gross speed is less than your net speed! ; )
Net Speed: 48 WPM
(words/minute)
Accuracy: 100%
Gross Speed: 48 WPM
(words/minute)
Used to be better and I surprised that I got a 100%
I would guess I would normally be at 60-65 with 75%.
Also I think most people have in there heads what they are typing next vs reading what they have to type next. Would make this slightly differ for each person.

I've got to say, th00p's dubious results put a smile on my face.
Not fast enough? I really suck at reading a piece of text and copying it. I type faster when typing my own pieces of text.
My real test results are thus:

Not nearly as fast as some of you crazy hobos.
Net Speed: 80 WPM
(words/minute)
Accuracy: 100%
Gross Speed: 80 WPM
(words/minute)
Did the Instructions test. Been a while since I did one of these things. Seems like my speed has gone down some.
