That’s not to say they couldn’t put ina different transmission and get up to 250 or more (though they would have to change the wings to lower drag to get there) and then they might be turning fast enough to cause health issues for the drivers as in the Texas example. Suffice it to say that there are reasons, and probably good ones, they don’t race those cars there.
