Good place to (legally) see what your car will do in the standing mile:

You also get verified proof of how fast your car is, unlimited runs (depending on turn out), and a chance to see some incredible cars. October had a twin turbo Lambo Merchilago out there along with an r34 skyline and some other rare cars (I believe my brother said that a certain C6 TT Z06 will be out there in March this year, expect 230mph plus from him).
