All I can say is wow. I was seriously over the speed limit by the time I shut it down. You can't go very far up the gears before you go into uncharted territory. It happens so fast

The car is actually hard to get used to because it DOES rev so high (you instinctively wanna shift too quickly). Also, what you heard is how it sounds from the inside. I have hit the rev limiter SEVERAL times because it doesn't sound like it's at the top of the RPM's yet. And it's also difficult to judge, since it NEVER STOPS PULLING.
It really is quite an experience to drive one of these beasts. I'm glad you got the opportunity

Let me just state that I actually hit 130 mph before I shut it down. My brother was trying to get the speedo but by the time he did the car geared down to 100mph. I was really afraid of getting nailed and having the car impounded otherwise a few more seconds and I would have easily nailed 150mph. This car gears down very hard and quickly, it almost feels as if you are applying the brakes when in fact you are not. You reach very quick speeds in no time at all and it is very easy to get in trouble with this car. I am sure I will hit 150 very soon the next time out. We do this on a very isolated road and would never try this with cars around.
