I'm back from a visit to the Autobahn in Germany.
This picture is from an RS6 Avant (Hohenester 500 hp).
The car started to feel a little light in speeds above 300 km/h.
A jumbojet takes off at 270 km/h so I guess it's ok considering... :D

Which autobahn was it?Isn't it hard to find a straight way to make such high speeds like 310 km/h ? By the way it should be a great feeling when you are going with 310 km/h... :dance:

We were able to keep speeds between 250-310 quite a few times.

Kind of. It was difficult both to find an autobahn long and free enough and also for the car to go much faster.

Anyway... Congrats Ben. It shouldn't be easy to make 274 kph in a country like USA. :applause:
