So tell me... Have you even read your owners manual and read about the break-in period?

I think you must've read it wrong, if it told you to wear DC stuff, and think you're Ken Block.

Yeah our cars are about as aerodynamic as a turd with flat forward facing wings so 160 would be a highestimate. Plus you don't need all that stuff to drag race just head out there and shoot her down the strip.
