Interesting where this thread has gone....
Well, in the interest of continuing to bash newer, more modern cars and flaunt the old rusted buckets of mechanical engineering how about the 1938 Mercedes-Benz W125 ?
Supercars.net has a section for the road legal cars with the highest top speed. The Sledgehammer is on there.... but it's #2, behind this 1930's Mercedes.
1. 433 kph / 269.1 mph 1938 Mercedes-Benz W125 Record
2. 409.9 kph / 254.7 mph 1988 Chevrolet Callaway Sledgehammer Corvette
1938?????!!!! 269.1mph?????!!!
