A 1993 Cobra will require 480rwhp to do 180mph. It takes over 700rwhp to doo 200mph in the same car. You do the math on how much air resistance plays into effect.
Many guys I have run with can do 160mph "fairly" easily, its WHERE you gonna find that stretch of track to do it in! (not on the street). I personally have done 157mph on 1/2 a lap of Michigan International Speedway (see Mustangworks video clips) several years ago.  With the new motor combo, I should be able to hit 180mph. Working on the aerodynamics (this winter) to keep it on the ground...
