I think he is possibly BSing. Is 200 mph even possible in a Nitro 1/10th car?
.......................The fastest speed I can find in the books belongs to Marc Davidson who went 120mph with his nitro powered car here is a link.......http://s257.photobucket.com/user/Nic...20MPH.mp4.html I believe it would be possible to reach that speed with deep, deep pockets and a purpose built car.
