I recently went to the Talledega superspeedway for the MB Drive for excellence car show etc they had at the track. BTW my 190E 16 won it's class! Anyway, for the winners we got free hot laps around the track. I had already paid to go out in the E55, mighty fime but too soft. As it was near the end of the day, my girlfriend got shotgun another guy was in the back with me and a girl from skip barber was driving , we chose the c43. I told our driver that we loved to go fast and we did. Top speed 160 with the windows down and four people. I don't know if it was without speed limiter or what, but all three passengers saw 160, no bull, even with my eyes watering. I was very impressed and the dang thing felt like it had 170 in it.
