I'd be interested to know also. Back in the early 1970s i had a 66
425HP Corvette I once, and only once, took up to 140mph. Front end
got real light around 135 and I have always believe the car would have
gone airborne a little above 140 mph. Wasn't many cars back then that
could break even 130 back then but once worked with a man in the steel
mills in Ohio that got a ticket in VA for doinfg138 mph in his then
new 68 Buick Gran Sport Rivera. The GS option came with 2 four
barrels.

Over here, you loose your licence for three to six months and a heavy
fine if you are doing 1.5 times the limit.
