    Unfortunately, few of us want to put in a roll cage for such an event. I would LOVE to take my GTO to one of these (or the G8, for that matter)...but I have NO interest in doing something like that to these cars. Now, if I EVER get around to building my '65 2+2 Mustang, that car will have a full road course type cage.

    Bring 'em out here to Utah. We can run 'em on the salt as fast as you dare. Not sure of the cost, and it's hell on the paint. But it's legal and officially timed.

    I just got back from a trip to AZ and although I would never admit to speeding, but based on my calculations, top speed for my 09G8GT is 139! LOL All stock at this time.

    My personal best is 162, but that was on my bike on the A60 (Autobahn in Mid-East Germany). 101 so far in the G8.
    Very stock... looking.

    My best is 162 as well, and also on a bike - my '04 636.

    Fastest in the G8 to date is the usual 139, damn limiter.

    California tends to frown on stuff like that, and other things too. My personal limit is my wallet.

    Lots of detail (cosmetic) work. Plenty of compliments. Complete clear mask - including headlights, fogs and rear bumper under the trunk. Layered Zaino car polish for exterior and seats, etc. Red/Onyx shifter, Lloyd custom mats, Flowmaster mufflers, K&N replacement air filter. California does have its mod limitations...
