Anything above 150 and you seriously need to consider and know what the fuck your doing. At those speed and higher the margin for error is quite literally zero

It's really not hard at all to stay under 100.... It's driver choice to do so whether it's a 50hp car or a 600hp car and I've spent plenty of time in cars in the 400s that can easily get to 100+ and yet always managed to avoid it on the street.
Sure it's *easier* to hit triple digit speeds with 600hp car than a 100hp car but in no way does that make the driver do so.
