No way.
Has anyone here ever been over 150? It's scary. I'm not certain I even believe the 176. Even a heavily modded car can't do that
Nonsense. I've driven (or seen) many cars that will easily do 200mph... Cars with well over 1000hp. Hell, my friend has twin turbo Camaro with a 1/4 mile trap speed of 150+mph.
That said, I'm highly suspect of those speed numbers quoted in the article. A Mustang ain't exactly a Bugatti Veyron at those speeds. Like you said, it's scary.

True, but a Veyron is good for another 30 mph above the claim the cop made. 176 is definitely doable with few mods. 200+ is also as well with some way more expensive mods. The car can be willing, but are the driver's twig and berries? I have no doubt that a modded late model Mustang can do it. Safe? No. Nothing in contact with the planet moving 200+ mph is ever safe. One wrong twitch gets you a closed casket.
