33 Hot Rod above 100 mph

Does anyone have considerable experience with the 33 above 100 mph? How is the handling? At what point does it start to get squirrely?

Experience above 100 MPH? Yes, many times on the track. Does it get squirrely? No, my car is very stable but the steering does quicken on any vehicle as you reach speeds near 150 and over and there is a driving technique to mitigate this.

Set your steering wheel so that you can tuck your elbows in close to your sides and grip the wheel only as hard as you would hold a baby's hand. This lessens the chances of uncommanded steering inputs from being bounced around in a car at speed. At high speed even the slightest steering input will induce significant direction changes and you will tend to constantly fight them and it will seem as if the car is unstable and fishtailing when in fact, you are unconsciously causing the instability. When you first start high-speed driving there is a tendency to use a death grip on the wheel and hold your elbows out where you feel like you have more leverage. This will transmit every little bump and jostle your body feels into the steering wheel and make the car feel unstable.

Thanks NAZ. I was hoping you would respond. I figured you probably had as more experience than most on the forum. I had a few experiences above 125 mph back in my old racing days but I'm always open to tips & suggestions.
