Your covering some ground @ 202mph.

Packy your Cobra was probably a exotic over there.

Impressive that those few of mods are worth ~10mph top speed - takes a lot of power to raise the top speed by that much. How much more boost does your tune add?
The 09 cars have topped out to 195mph GPS verified stock. I've personally hit 190mph back in Mexico when my car was stock. It covers ground quicker now. I was on my pump gas tune so I am making about 100-130whp over stock and I make about 150-170whp over stock on E85. I'm going to do another top speed pull on E85 and see if I can get 204 out of the car.

ever vboxed? My guess based off speedo is your somewhere around 60-120 in 7.0 and 60-130 in 9.0. Could be a bit faster but you started at around 65 on the speedo.

@6800RPM's i'm @ 202mph...in 4th.

..with one acceleration gear to go. I was able to go outside, mow my grass, take a baby gtr, and then, you were @ 198mph and climbing on your still playing video. Totally EPIC dude.

I did a Vbox before and was at 7.0 60-130 on pump and about 6.3 60-130 on E85. That was from the last time I recorded on a vbox. Now you are correct about the vid it started at 65mph, but I started the run at 60. I just got into the run so quick I didn't even get the whole span of speed.

Uh anything that can go 200mph is impressive. And do it so smoothly and uneventfully which he clearly was doing.

I love this thread for a few diff reasons...

one, I like the original post.. I dont care who you are or what road you are on, it takes ***** to get a car up to 200 IMHO he just killed 90% of all human beings! . LOL

but even more than that, I love that there are adults on this board that appreciate a well done car no matter the make or model.

Thanks guys, Im proud to be a noob here...

Nice. I drove my car in Autobahn, many times. I pegged the speedo and the RPM was still climbing. And I got a shirt.
