Obviously the right conditions had to be in place for that to happen for a V8 car. The owner stated he averaged 60mph while the engine was turning up about 1700 rpm, so the car was having a pretty easy time of it. Most likely the owner got that from a long highway trip, not regular driving with a little city mixed in. I certainly wouldn't expect it on a regular basis.
