Road & Track has a ad section with companies that can fix that fuel shutoff
problem. But I would imagine that 175 was a nut-tingler by any measure. The
best I've done is a sustained 125mph on the Autobahn in an Audi and I had
white knuckles. Even at that speed I was passed by Mercedes and BMW's like I
was standing still...

What I want to know George, how much did you pay that guy to torch his car?
And when you get your engine massaged, will he do it again???
