Wow that's scary! The Gallardo spun in 2 gears and the Porsche didn't pass it even though he let off twice! The Porsche only passed when it didn't go to 4th!

Stacy, one drawback, IMO on the GT2 is the very light front end. If you are racing 40-160, its OK, but these cars get very scary above 200 mph.

With a big cross wind the car goes really straight at those speeds.

Jitsu I have been in the top of 6th really hard, not sure mph but it had to be close to 200! The car felt fine! Who knows though!

EVOMS and I are going to try and hit the Shift sector event next month! It's a half mile side by side event! Looks cool! We shall see what it does on the top end! Wish us LUCK!!

None, 190 was the highest and scary as ****. Rear engine light front end (rwd) makes the front end highly unstable, or so it seems at those speeds.

Got my M3 (when it was SC and dynoed 644) to 185 once, and it felt a hell of a lot more stable/safe.

And Paulie, seriously, of all people you are probably the least qualified to comment on high speeds/racing or anything much beyond getting the car out of your driveway.

I do believe that their is a limit upon bench racing per thread, and you exceeded it about 10 pages back.

Just sayin....

If I recall correctly, Eric, you said that (I think it was 205 or so) was one of the scariest things you have ever done (and for those that don't know Eric, he has tons of track time).
