[TPR] 150 mph

[David Carpenter]

 I told many @ ORR events:
"@ that speed, brain cells actually work Against you!!"  (204mph = 100 yards/sec)

Watching Army/Navy game ...so football measurements come to mind!!!

ALL Corvettes til C4  .... got Horribly loose at 130+!!  As aero as they looked, the front end got light & it was a handfull!!!
C4 was better, but lacked the power to really test above 160.

Dave Hill got C5 in Wind tunnel to it's final shape!!!  First Vette that was really stable to 200!!
I can only say that I spent a lot of time @ 170 in C5 & C6 Vettes.  They did it easy & felt very smooth.
Again, I didn't carry a lot of brain cells then either!!!!

America can build & manufacture anything!!  We have the Best farming in the World!!
Goods should be shipped FROM our shores, NOT coming in!!!

Car and Driver is reporting that the Tesla S Plaid does not feel stable at 150 or more.  It can go much faster so I would say Tesla has not done it's aero work properly. So not only the Pantera starts feeling squirrelly at 150 mph!!
