Holy COW!
Even with a bad fuel pump......at lunch today, had 2 co-workers in the car and a half tank of gas. Pulled gently out into the street (2 lanes each way plus a center turn lane), had to go all the way across.......no traffic, eased out to keep the scoops from scraping, then at about 15mph, I mashed it (about halfway across the intersection).
SCREEEEEEEEEECH! Lit 'em right up on dry clean pavement.

Also, I've read you mention this 130mph top speed thing before. Is this a big deal to you? No disrespect intended but we used to run 140 plus in the GTP'* easily and I know my Bonnie gets up to 130 real quick and has plenty of pull left. I just haven'* had the chance to let her go with the taller gearing. 150 does not seem out of reach I would think. I've heard claims of hitting 160 in a modded GTP.
