If you hit 175 twice, you must have had some good long straights.

. You are right about the sound, it's decieving and warps your perception of speed, especially with the tops off and windows down at full throttle in 6th gear under load.

Spot-on Amir!
My first C-GT drive was on the track and the car is phenominal. The first couple of laps were done with the traction control on but the amazing part was that, with the traction control off, the car felt very controlable and not in the least scary. Ofcourse, being driven by Manuel Collard who races for the Yokos-Freisinger GT3 team, made things look easy. The car was hammered hard all day long without anything, in the least, going wrong. Can't say the same about my similar experience in the SLR!
