So, where is safer, on the road or track?

Would you be bold enough to do that on a road?

I did Silverstone GP on the 996 earlier this year. Now admittedly mine is still running with the standard gearing and as such doesn't accelerate as quickly as it could, but from the revs I was pulling going down the Hanger Straight, and from the calcs I did when I got back, i don't reckon I was doing much more than 140 - unless my maths is way out? But if that is the case then there's probably a lot of people who've been quicker than that on the road in the past. Think the difference is it's so much more commited on track.
