Default JL Turbo STS C5Z breaks 200mph in TopGunRun

This past Sunday (March 14th) JL Turbo broke the 200mph barrier in this 2004 STS Twin Turbo Z06 and ran a best of 203.7mph in the standing mile at TopGunRun in Collier County, FL.

Of all the cars there, including many lambos, twin turbo lambos, ford gt's, porsche gt, vipers, etc you name it, they were the 3rd fastest in the event behind a 1500+hp 253mph Ford GT and a 23xmph Porsche.

Enjoy the video.

Me with my little STS 02Z06580rwhp still can't imagine it, since videos are hard to really see speed with! It must be hard to keep you food down though!

AWESOME JOB GUYS. Very cool bunch of people,... well deserving of them to reach they're goal of 200mph.
