When driving up to the Pahrump event Friday night, there is a stretch of road that no cops are on. As a matter of fact, NOBODY was on there for hours!
So needless to say, it was TIME to see what the Z could do, ha ha. So I got on it. Well, I don't know why it is supposedly speed limited to 137, cause I could only get up to about 143 when the tach needle hit the red line in 5th gear! And as this road was not real smoothly paved (it undulated quite a bit!!!), the car started to feel real LIGHT as well - so I didn't stay at it for long.
