My car was still pulling nicely at 150mph the other morning....
We could probably hit 200mph with 700rwhp. Its the aerodynamics that kill us...

it's not the weight that matters. weight reduces acceleration, but has no influence on top speed. what limits top speed are frictional forces like friction with the air, friction with the ground, internal friction of driveline components. but mostly its friction with the air since this increases dramatically at high speeds.
