i've gotten a ticket for 115mph in a 55 zone. does that count? would've been faster, but thats as fast as a n/a 240 would go.
go to t-bricks if you wanna learn about getting a car like mine

I am the top bidder, but whats reserve? It's just a plate for heavens sake!

Dai, I agree, must have been 2.1. My 2.3 3 speed auto would do 120mph.

Never got it to 200k's though(about 128mph)

Cheers
