So - on what kind of roads are you folks doing these speeds? Top for me was 137 just south of Point Sur Light, California Highway 1, a two-lane straight but up-and-down grade B asphalt stretch a few miles north of Big Sur. Car definitely needed more downforce, tho more worried about CHP than losing it.

LOL, I'm not actually saying that I've never driven at 137 or more on a public road; I'm just saying that in this area it's really too fast, at least for me. The risks outweight the rewards.

weren't there old posts about top speed before???
nevertheless..
150mph 200rpm short of redline. on the I15 at 1am. top up...
pretty scary.. prolly wont do it again.. there are so many things running in my mind...
animal crossing, CHP, too risky. just wanted to see it's limits at least once...
and contrary to Enthralled's *ahem* SC'ed *ahem* mine took a while to get to 150mph..
damn supercharged S!!!!

AP1s top out at 167 @ 9k.
Turn Zero
I did 147 on US1 before the little motor that could ran out of power
