Two summers ago I took my stock 1989 90 quattro up to my fastest speed ever...

Beautiful summer day, empty highway, great visibility...

Brought it up to just over 215km/h...about 217km/h...speedometer was still
climbing, but at about 2km/h per kilometer.

Now that I've started to really rally the car, and solo II it...I just find the
whole speed on paved roads boring.

Had to do it once, you know...be young and stupid...tack it up on my imaginary
wall of 'personal achievements'.

But, I honestly don't think I'd do it again unless it was legal (Autobahn?).

Hey...wait a second...is this going to be in the archives!?!
