Reply to "How fast do you drive safely?"

I'm a little surprised that the top speed was in the 150s in that car with Rahal driving as I've seen 163 from the passenger seat coming into the breaking zone for turn 1.  I saw it first in a modified Viper GTS and again in  a Porsche 911 Turbo GT.  My little commuter showed 121 at the same point, but it's speedo is a bit optimistic.  Still, going back to your performance envelope statement, it's surprising what a fairly basic can can do now.  What used to be the exclusive territory of high performance cars can now be done by a fairly low-spec sport coupe.
