max speed achieved on public road?
Good times...
And just another thought on this... I drove my Porsche to a business meeting in Denver recently, and some of my colleagues didn't previously know I had it. Of course, much conversation ensued, and one of the questions that came up was "How fast have you gone?" It seems that non Porsche people need to hear a large number so they can decide whether or not you are worthy of the car (even though they have no clue what it can do).
My answer was that 90MPH around a tight right-hander on the track is a lot more thrilling than triple digit speeds on a straight highway. Apparently that answer makes me worthy of a Porsche

I have a friend here in the DC area who is a cop. Had dinner with him last weekend and he told me that the police stop very few high-end sports cars... not because they are not many on the road or because they aren't occassionally breaking the law but because there are so many other crazy drivers that keep their attention. He relayed that he tickets more Prius and Mustangs than any other cars... Moral to the story... follow the guy that is going faster and/or driving like an idiot.

I likewise have never gone at least 143 mph.
