Re: What's the fastest speed you have ever gone?

Well.. there's always this thing... I guess if you can drop a million five on a car you can probably afford the track time in Germany too.

I've been in love with that car since it debuted as a concept years ago. It's such an over engineered and technologically advanced car that it's amazing. I've seen several of them in my travels but never one at speed. Gotta love a W16 engine with 4 turbos that can hit 253 mph, may not be the record holder for fastest production car anymore (SSC Aero took that) but it's still my ultimate "ya right" dream car.

Re: What's the fastest speed you have ever gone?

Did 140 in my 63 Vette, 130 in my 86 Corvette convertible. I would have gone faster, but it felt like the top was going to rip off. 155 with my 99 Corvette Coupe, and 135 on my Yamaha FJ-1100. Here in So Cal today I was on the Freeway cruising at 80, and people were flying buy me. That's scarry, because people don't know how to friggen drive here.
