Yes, its possible. Naturally aspirated? Not sure, but I'm here to say I just witnessed a SC'ed Stook do it. We've got video to prove it too, so stay tuned until we get it converted to mpeg. *bigfrigginschmile* Before the warnings start up, it was quite clear, no traffic or any other cars around for many miles - yes we knew this ahead of time.
In the meantime, has anyone received any tickets from running toll booths in N Dallas before?

I'm assuming you did this tonight? Damn....how the hell did you get enough open road to get to 155...I guess in a SC'd stook, you need considerably less real estate.
I got mine to 136 n/a on about 10 miles of road on the way down to Springfield, IL.
Waiting for the video....

I was going 80mph and he flew by me like I was standing still.
Here's the pic of his car:
It was an unorganized Plano mini-meet. I got a call from Honda Guy at 11:00 pm and he told me to check out this guy's supercharged S2K.
It was fun...

Wussup Schatten! Holy $hit, I can't believe John hit 154 mph on Highway 190
. That was insane...all I know was that Quan (DeeGYM) was doing around 80 mph and the next thing I hear/see is John zooming by super quick. That was a pretty cool video.

Guys,
I didn't post the other pics b/c they suck. You can't see a thing. We have to get together in the daylight.
There were 5 S2ks (2 silver, 2 red, 1 white) and of course one was supercharged.
Later...

all I gotta say is - you guys rock! yes, an 11pm call to meet up w/a few other stookers - 5 in all in the middle of the night, driving all over the place till just after 2am! If it weren't for the hills and the curves back home...I'd love this place even more!

Everyone should check out Schatten's website...www.buymeaferrari.com
It's pretty funny. On the serious note, yeah that did kick a$$...It's a shame I had a slash in my tire, otherwise I'd be driving quick and having fun, too. I can't believe John got up to 154 mph within 3-5 miles probably.

What revs were you doing when you hit top speed (155mph)? I'm curious to know how fast you were actually traveling ... not what the speedo showed (could be 10mph error there).
Good stuff though ... how long did it take to get to that speed?
