Welcome to the the world of ORR and especially the Silver State Classic---
It's a great time, but you need to use great care--90 miles on a standard highway (NV 318) with rocks and the desert on both sides is not forgiving---

In this speed category (160+) you will need a roll cage, helmet restraint system (Hans etc), fire suppression recommended and lots of other things---if this is your first time, you will need multiple waivers (you will get them if you are a F-1 driver, otherwise not likely)---would suggest you go and do the usual route-doing 110-120 mph average speed over 90 miles-it is lots of fun and a great time-then try 150 or 170 or 200 levels

Can this car do that?--not sure as I don't own one--it's power is meaningless unless you can control it--that depends on it's aerodynamics at these speeds and Y tires are mandatory imo--there were two fatalities at the last event (tire failure with veteran folks)

Last time for me was 127.7297 mph average-adrenaline rocks

(btw looking at an S4--it seems to be an intriguing car)
