Edit: start at 200 if you hit that it'll already be F'n crazy.

has top secret ever had a car join the 200 club? yeah there's an official club because 200 is that hard

Though the Bakers would never condone street racing in this country, their friend Smoky's done 200+ a few times on the street -- Japan in his excellent Supra and the Autobahn in a Top Secret Skyline, among others:
Smoky Nagata's V35GT-R Skyline driving 211 mph on the Autobahn

I think maybe you don't quite understand how we do things in Texas. In Texas, incredible, seemingly impossible feats like a standing 250 mph mile or landing on the moon in less than a decade in the 60s are not things we whine about. They're things we do.

A modified Lamborghini has posted a 250 mph run at The Texas Mile. Goliad is famous for the flag that said "Come and take it" about a cannon during the Texas Revolution. The guys at Underground Racing have posted a milestone at Goliad and said "Come and take it". I think The Bakers are just responding like Texans.
