Anyone seen Autocar this week, p37, 20 questions for Lee Noble. So Q18 asks him, What's the fastest you've ever driven on the public highway?
Much respect for going public. The number is 197 mph.
That must be a record.
Clearly this was in Germany.

Yup. A German owner of a McLaren F1 had problems so the engineer downloaded the CPU's data. He said there must be a problem as it claimed the car regularly did 200mph+... the owner just said "nah, i do it every few days"
