Besides this question was coming up in a conversation between me and another person I know.
sorry to rag on you 'bout the naming. the only thing that will heat up are your tires, check the rating. the problem with telling performance by top speed, is that you get very few opportunities to test top speed. thats why ricers focus so much on it, cause they drive tiny little cars (small wind resistancd) with ONLY top end power, so they generally have higher top speeds (maybe 140-150). they measure performance in top speed and redline, mostly. fargin morons.
