Mr PB: I was there ! I was a passenger in a 1956 Patrician and I think we did about 80 mph on the track. I wish I could remember the name of the driver/owner. He was a Motor City Packard member. The most I have done in my '53 is 70 mph.

My unrestored 1940 110 coupe will do 60 MPH comfortably (it doesn't have the optional overdrive).65 is tops so far.
