Speaking of those Porsches, nine of the top ten slots in the top speed competition are claimed by modified 911 Turbos.<br /><br />A monochrome Swede ruled them all, though, a black-and-white Koenigsegg CCX setting fire to the speed trap run after run, hitting 211 miles per hour at its quickest. It was followed by, surprise, a 911 GT2 modified by 9E that did 210 mph.
