Also, for general info, every 10mph above 65mph has 2x the wind resistance. So 75mph has 2x the wind resistance as 65, and 85mph has 2x the resistance of 75mph. This is why a 300hp car can do about 150-160 but it takes a good 500+hp to do 200mph. You can imagine how hard it is to get from 190mph to 200mph. This is why so few cars do 200mph. The Corvette, despite the fact the new Z06 has 500hp, still "only" does 196mph because of this wind resistance.
Also why it takes a whole 1001hp to power the Veyron to 253mph.

you should be able to control that g2r with ease on pavement. i had no problems at all controlling mine running strapped road rages at that speed! my front wheels stayed an inch or two off the ground at around 40mph, and i had way more stability than the ntc3 i was racing!:dft012:
