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

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:

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.
