Exactly my thoughts - I'm not going to admit to more than 70 in the UK.

On an unlimited autobahn I've done 140mph (according to my GPS) before I ran out of quiet road.

IAM trained driver for 13 yrs, an indicated 250kph outside of europe. Then i needed to ease off as traffic conditions up ahead did not allow me to make good progress.

Car was still pulling well, especially considering the outside temps.

I get 120 in 4th gear in my B5 S4, thought the RS would get a little more than that....

Anyway 160 in my B5 S4 at just over 6000rpm with more to go....Not bad for an 11yr old motor :D
Hmmm, its fast but is it fast enough!!!
