    Depends on the track...You might have driven the 911 on a track with long straights meaning more time to hit higher speeds...whereas carbrochuretom might have gone on a track with smaller straights meaning less time to hit the speeds you did.....

    Thruxton and Snetterton are also contenders for extreme speeds.

    I did warp speed in the Malenium Falcon last week. She's big, so parking wasn't easy.

    Negative, ghost rider. Top speed = 127mph. She was definitely singin' though.
