There’s a new superhighway between Seguin and Austin (toll road) that is super fast. The speed limit is only 85, you feel like you’re crawling.
Mark Hennessy recently ran a Corvette down it at 200 mph. I’d like to drive a Super Car down it some time. Although I know I’d chicken out and back off at about 140.
(Maybe less)

I saw one of those in the valet parking area of the Mall of Dubai a couple of months ago.It had Saudi plates on it...as did many of the Ferraris,Maseratis and other $500,000+ cars that were parked in the same lot.

I saw a Veyron in my small town (30,000) last month.
Last summer a Mercedes 540SSK drove past my house...all white with wire wheels and wide white-wall tires. Very stunning.

back before my brain fully matured (so in my teens) I ran a 1985 Merkur XR4Ti up to 180.. what a rush that was...
car was obviously not stock, but man was it quick.

If 200mph = 300 ft/sec, then 246mph = 360.8 ft/s...
The need for speed!

Watched an episode of Top Gear where Captain Slow took one of those to [IIRC] top speed @ the VW track. What got me was they stated the car would go through a tank of fuel in a short matter of minutes at that velocity. And I thought I was thirsty...

I was passed by a black Bentley a couple of times here in MA. It feels like a land shark is coming up from behind you.
I saw a special on the manufacturing process. The engines are tested by being run for 24 hours at 200 mph.
