I've already gone 205 mph in a Lightning.... the one I built on GT4.
It sure took a healty dose of spray! Back to reality now... the fastest I probably ever had my L is 205 KPH LOL. If GT4 is remotely realistic, it's going to take a ton of power and even better aero to hit 200 mph, but like you said 180-190 may be doable. Good luck on your quest and keep us informed... inquiring minds want to know!

The new Z0-6 will be very close to 200mph. It is a totally different animal than the old one.

Way to go Stan. I sincerely believe that there is allot to gain with the aerodynamics. That's my next challenge.
There is so much turbulence under the vehicle. Have you experimented with plating the underbody?

The problem with the underneath is that there is so much heat that needs to get out.That is the reasoning behind the ground effects[white plastic]Trying to cut down on the under vehcile air.I know that there is an average of 7 to 10 mph gain by doing that.sTan
