That is exactly what happened. He wanted to demonstrate his new brake setup. I said "meh. Not impressed by braking power, and it seems you are locking the front easily". His answer was "ok, i will do it again, but look at the speedo this time".

In fact, he just accelerated to around 160mph like it was nothing, and then the brakes got the car back to 30 in what was a very very very short length of road. But the way the power was delivered felt like it was way slower.

This is a very efficient setup, for sure ... but it is no fun
