Makes sense, bikes usually have a crap top end, and at 150 the AMG will still be pulling very strongly.

WTF is the point is placing an asterisk where the last digit of the speed would be?

It's obvious that you're talking about illegal speeds on a road, so why bother trying to cover it up so lamely?

As said the higher the speed the better the car will fare,i had a genuine race bare in mind though my car is 1700kg's the escos is 1500kg's but wasnt designed for top speed,mine is very aerodynamic with 516ft lb from 2000rpm!....std quarter NO CHANCE mine is best 12 secs (std) into 11's with pulley change..from 130 though the torque i saw wins with the aerodynamics

Edit..Fuzzy my last victim was a 1.3 Nova obliterated him

Any spec's on the car in question?

0-100, 0-150 etc etc?

i cant see it keeping up with the R1 between 50 - 170mph, but i might be wrong.
