Problem with a lot of these times (and I have owned a few of the cars mentioned) is that they don't go that fast.

Z3, Cobra ... etc.
i'm guessing the cobra comment was towards me? my car is geared to go ~ 190 and believe me it has enough power to do it.

166.4 MPH driving Dale Jarrett's #88 car for 10 laps at Talledega. By far the coolest thing I've ever done.

i might have posted this before, but last year i was in a customer's Audi A6 Quattro with sports package in Germany, and he drove at about 240km/h most of the way from Frankfurt to Coburg. scared me to death but the car was amazingly stable at those speeds.
