You ever see that episode of top gear where they test the c6 zo6? Clarkson starts the car out on the airstrip from a dead stop in 5th gear and gets up to something like 150mph or so before having to shut it down. Nuts.

Yeah, so my clutch won't like 6th gear starts. Hell, it doesn't like 2nd gear starts.

That was a cool episode. The only reason he had to shut it down was because he ran out of runway. The car was still pulling at 150.
