I will preface this by saying I do not encourage behavior of this sort, I was younger and much less mature at the time...
I went appx 155-160 on the 15 after passing Primm/stateline about 4 years ago. Late January, cold thick air... the car got up to speed fine but did not handle that nice at extreme speed on that stretch of road. I blame aerodynamics for the issues I had at speed. Hell, M3 GTRs (600hp monsters) would only get up to around 190 on the stretch between the gantry and bridge (Green Hell reference)
Edit: Honestly Meric, to give you an example you will better understand it would be like one of your buddies saying then went top speed in a Cessna. If you want to go fast, find a car that can do 200. That is the true measure of driving a fast car.

Yeah I did this on a closed stretch of road. Car got up to that speed in less than a mile and was surprisingly stable for me at those speeds.

FFFFF....
just started the ZHP for the first time in a few days, sounds weird like its not running on all cylinders... then SES light came on. I guess I'll be driving the 320 tonight.

Meric I'm starting to doubt how smart you really are.
Take it to a track if you are planning something please.
