Message Even race cars generally don't have gearing for 200 mph unless they're scary fast, like IRL or F1 cars. There just aren't enough high speed tracks around to make it worthwhile.

Case in point- the last 2 ferrari challenge races I went to, with raced-out F360's duking it out on the track, had max speeds of 135 mph (Lime Rock) and 165 mph (Road Atlanta).

Besides, what kind of convertible top can withstand 200 mph?

:Modded or not, few cars have the gearing to reach 198mph.
:Most ferraris don't even see that mark.
:I highly doubt his s2k has that kind of cojohnes unless he had the entire car rebuilt from ground up in a race-prep situation to handle that kind of power and speed as well as wear and tear.
