    Where in the world did you perform this task?

    Other than on the autobahns of Germany, I do not know on what other public roads it could be done...

    Close
    I cannot reveal the location publically ( for obviuos reasons)
    But it can be done asthe M6 acceleartes quite quickly from 110 mph. It does an 80 to 100 mph sweep in 3rd very quickly
    'In this particular video i used a passenger camera mount and paused at 140 mph and again at 180 mph before proceeding to 196mph
    I actually ran out of road, otherwise I would have takenit to 200mph

    I must say this though. It was not on readily accessable public road and no other cars were around
    Cheers

    I tell ya...

    In Italy, on the A7 highway heading southbound after just having passed Milan to the East (left), you can really fly. That road is straight for 15 miles. There I reached 180 miles per hour in a Ferrari 360 Modena!

    Yes that type of run does bring the "wow factor" into play
    The car is rock steady at those speeds
    there was no vibration in the cabin

    The Northway would be good for it if there weren't so many troopers and radar.

    I've taken Ocean Pkwy 100s of times, and its really not that smooth and definitely not smooth enough that I would want to go 180mph+

    Ditto with the "cool clip"

    or Chuck Norris was in the back seat pedaling Flintstones style. No wait, then the car would have went faster than the speed of light. Nevermind....

    Please tell me you're joking ha ha

    This is a real video

    the car was on real road not jacked up...but believe what you want

    I respect this board and its members way too much for hoaxes

    If you like do a search of this board for my other videos and ten you'll see that the videos are for real
    The M6 easily hots 196 mph and if you watch carefully you'll see that even at this speed the rpm count was only at 7000rpm and it redlines at 8259
    Its a V-10 engine and all I wanted to demonstrate was its accelerating capability.

    Thanks for your comments though its all taken in good nature

    Cheers
