boy, am i feeling all smug and cocky. In a post of mine to this thread a few pages ago, i suggested the Brock/Superformance Coupe with the present engine, i believe one of the Roush 402 motors, would go "205-207 mph."

And now to hear that it went 206 mph, just makes me look brilliant.

By the way, i can only think of a few non-race cars today that, off the dealer's lot, can go over 200, much less 206, in the USA.

Lets see, not the Vipers, not the fastest 'Vettes, not a Modena, perhaps the 575 Maranello, the new big Lambo, and maybe the Turbo Porsche's.

So this goes in a pretty select and rarifed group. And this with a very streetable Roush. With better heads, and better carburation, perhaps 210 mph??
