I race out on the Slat Flats and hold all 3 land speed records in the F/ blown gas roadster class ( with qaulifying passes over 200mph... I am all about speed...With that said, I would never think of bringing my cobra much over 150 mph...That is extremely fast on the pavement for a Cobra and you are definetly playing with your luck...I do not think anyone should be out there playing with tires pressures at these speeds...I would hate to read about anyone getting killed trying...I have been close to 180 in my Viper GTS and that was even a little sketchy because it is set up to drive on the street ( though has major suspension, brakes and motor work done...plus a 6 point roll bar and harness)....

**At 200 mph I was passing the mile markers at a rate of 1 every 8 seconds,....Speed Safely!
