How do you 'approach' top speed. 850

Ray- I think I read that same auto article about top speed and, if I remember right, the 855R topped out at 152mph. they were testing 'vettes, 300z, 540s etc. The point that suprised me was weight has no effect on top speed. Of course it may take longer to reach there but (a loaded or unloaded) car will reach it's top speed space permiting. I will not try a top run in my brick. Maybe in a porsche 911 TT. BD
