As ******** as it sounds you guys are making way too much of this. I've been +200 on public roads more times than I can count and it's seriously not that big of a deal. Get a nice stretch of highway and let it rip. Granted with a TT car it doesn't take much to get there so I guess that could throw things off a bit.
In retrospect the way most of you talk, you shouldn't be doing that kind of speed. You don't have the brass to control yourself and think rationally to do it remotely safely.
Kinda funny, i've been faster on the back roads doing some "testing" the day before silver state than any of the unlimited cars ran in the race, with the top off and windows down none the less.
It's a slippery slope, after a while 150 just feels lame, as does 180, 200, etc. Cheap thrills I guess.
If anyone was curious with right around 800rwhp you can run 200 turning 4k rpm in 6th. Makes for a nice late night cruise
