the correct speed vs drag equasion is as speed doubles, drag quadrouples

so the drag at 100MPH is say 200 (just to put figures into it)
at 150MPH it would be 400
at 200 MPH it would be 800








now i would be every interested what sort of drag coefficients an evo has, say, compared to a saph cossie, or even a zonda...

i would say there is a MASSIVE difference, thus briging me to my point...
about how HARD it would be to get an evo to 220 mph....
