210 is crazy. You're lucky your tires didn't pop. Your engine might go that high, but most tires aren't rated for that much friction.

I forgot to add that this was in kilometers per hour, but you probably guessed that

I figured after I started typing, but figured my thoughts on tires remained the same and just went with it. 130 mph is still too fast. My old car only got up to 100 back in the day.

yea that's right, with perspective I realize I pusged the car beyond what it was meant to endure. Had anything happened, I may not have been able to correct course
