Curious to know how much all this horsepower and handling goes to the head (it has for me... )

Please if interested list speed and car. Do not specify track or street as you never know who's watching!! If there's a good story please feel free to post that too.

For me:

155mph 997TT EVT 720 (yesterday; car didn't break a sweat & very well planted with the lowered suspension and spoiler; record will not last)

Hope you dont mind a 996TT

For me 186.4 mph Texas Mile Mar 2009. EVOMS GT660 at the time. No drama. Car easily stopped within the half mile provided.
