I'm assuming that there were no others in site or on the road

please keep that speed on the track. No need to rec. a ticket or lose a fellow driver

I've hit 157mph on the main straight at Road America, a bigger rush is braking hard from that speed and taking corner #1...

(I was getting well over 150 each lap on that straight, I'd like to take it over 160 this year)

I agree, a Porsche is very stable at speed!

240km is quick but try going 300+ klicks sometime, that's a proper rush.

I would have gone faster if I didn't run out of ashphalt! To get any quicker I am going to have to carry more speed out of the corner into that main straight, or brake later into turn 1... yikes!
