One bad ride for sure. Glad I wasn't riding shotgun. Surprised more parts didn't blow off the Cuda at 200 MPH. The car just doesn't have the lines to run that fast for very long.

Wonder how fast an Astro can go before you start running out of Aero.

Wait, an Astro is more aerodynamic than a Viper? Wonder what a Cuda's stock cd is.
