How did your car feel at 179? Was it on the street or track?

 

It was on the I 5 on the way to a race at Laguna Seca just as the sun was coming up. Nobody on the road but a pesky Z06.

Car felt awesome.

so true...it`s hard to find the space you need to get close to the speed mentioned.
But around Stuttgart and between Munich and Stuttgart,there are some long straights which even partly go downhill/uphill.
Have fun and watch those lane jumpers who switch lanes all in a sudden and for no reason without setting any lights

 

202 indicated on the digital speedometer
that was in awd mode and the car was making a bit less power
it was on a 315/25/19 michelin ps2

im trying to break the 210 mark with 305/30/19 tires & RWD

im hoping to do a 212-215
the car has plenty of power to do it, and its slammed to the ground

there are open roads but lately theyve been really foggy at night so i wouldnt want to risk it

if that wont work, my friend with a z06 has 2 325/30/19 tires that should do the trick

 

Maybe it's me or maybe it's my car. It just did not seem very stable at 150. It was the first time I drove it , could be I need to get used to it.
For comparison ; my Audi S4 on the same road is rock solid at 140.
Guess I will just have to go out and try it again

 

I'll take it one step further and mention the going name for Stuttgart during 8am-6pm is "Stau-gart" otherwise know as traffic jam.

 

I did 318kmh/197mph digit tacho with a stock engine on a empty european motorway, no driving problems, even in long curves.
