I've gone 190km/h in a Rabbit, and I'll tell you, I'd never go that fast in that chassis, no matter what it has for suspension, or cage, or whatever. The friggin doors start to separate from the body at 180+-, unless it's caged. Then it picks up a vibration around 190, and I don't mean tire vibration.

I've taken a rabbit to around 190-200. It wasn't that bad.

Well, the one I took over 190, had around 300000 miles, not kms on it. My 83 GTI that's in my garage right now, might not be that bad, but I think I'll pass. I prefer to turn than go fast in a straight line. Hey, you know anywhere, other than the dealer, where I can get a full bolt set for a 2l 16v?

Does anyone know where that was?

To me it looked like the same stretch of road where ghost rider did one of his stunts. The one where he rides 300 km/h in between 2 trucks going in the oposite direction.
