I have. On the Autobahn between Germany and Italy(and it was totally
legal back in the 80's when there wasn't a maximum speed limit on the
Autobahn). In a Porsche 911 Turbo Carrera. Dude in a Neon going at
120mph that car does get skittish(and I have a much better brakes and
suspension than the SRT so don't even go there). One fuckup and you're
toast. PERIOD! ABS isn't gonna save your ass if something breaks, or
someone or something jumps out in front of you.
