I once covered 240 miles in 2 hours at WOT or near-WOT. The temp gauge on the dash never budged, and I burned 9-10 gallons of gasoline doing it. That car went on to drive over 250,000 miles, so I don’t think it suffered any ill effects.
With 200HP on tap, we’ll be going 150-160MPH. 150 makes the math come out to a nice even 40 minutes to cover the distance.
there are plenty of 200-ish HP hot hatches that would easily be able to make it 100 miles
The Ford Aerostar went down in history as one of the most unreliable cars ever made, albeit mostly due to transmission problems. I assume it was an automatic transmission flaw, so credit where credit is due: this car may actually not suffer from that horrendous record.
100 miles of straight road will be difficult to find, at least in America. ND 46 W miiight work, but it is not truly straight for a 100 uninterrupted miles. Saudi Arabia or Australia may fare better.

Ripping off quick shifts, or quick “feeling” shifts, is kind of intrinsic to a sporty car as it compliments the whole feel of what the car…

Did you ever consider investing in Bally stock so that you could benefit from what you knew your company was doing?
the companies can feel free to go ahead and spend a few billion buying back their own shares to enrich investors, which is where the real money will go.

Also a thought, wouldn’t this void a lot of home owner’s insurance policies?
