Now as far as what this car is actually "drag" limited to... I don't know. Even with mods and putting down 315 to the rear wheels, it takes a bit to get to 140 even. 160 sounds doable but over 170? IDK about that... Of course with forced induction that is another story.

Hmmm really. From 60mph, I feel like I can get to 140mph very quickly. My car seems to Rev up past 120mph very fast. From 0 it doesn't take too long either. I seem to reach 100mph extremely fast from 0 and then the next forty are progressively gradual. In other words I don't feel like I'm lagging to get to 140mph. Maybe its because I have a 7AT? But once I hit 140mph, then things seem to slow down a lot more.

Well this is coming from a banked straight so I guess it feels more sluggish to get to 140. Actually, let me clarify. From 120 to 140 seems to take a bit longer than I would like but I guess all told, I am covering that span in about 2 or 3 seconds and an 8th of a mile??

Haha... when I put it that way, I guess it's not so bad!

About drag limit. It is a little bit strange to me. Here are few facts:

Audi TT mk2 (second generation):
Drag coefficient 0.30
2.0TFSI FWD S-line - 2889 lbs curb weight - 200HP
my top speed was 280+ km/h on tachymeter (272 km/h by Garmin GPS) on long straight on Autobahn with grippy tyres, but traction control since 260 was blinking
Tyres - 245/40/18" (in S-line, basic were 225/50/16")

3.2 VR6 quattro with 3250 lbs (3262 lbs for S-tronic) curb weight - 250HP
electronically limited top speed to 250 km/h
Tyres - standard 225/44/17"

TTRS 2012 MT - 3306 lbs - 360HP
Drag coefficient 0.32
Top speed electronically limited to 250 km/h or 280 km/h (option with Carbon Air Box). BTW: 0-62 in 4.1s in 2012 version!
Tyres - 245/40/18" - Height is 10mm lower than standard TT

370Z 3232 lbs curb weight - 328 HP (in Europe)
Drag coefficient 0.29 in sport package thanks to chin spoiler and rear wing
(0.30 in BASE)
Top speed 250 km/h - why not higher without el. limiter?
