It must have not latched, when I had the hood open letting the car cool down in line. I took it out, so there is no interference anymore. My speeds were 170.1 (with the A/C and Stereo on, LoL), 172.7mph and 173.5mph. The conditions were pretty bad for a twin turbo car.
Thank you for posting this, and making me aware of this,

That must have been exciting
when you're doing 170 you have better things to do than look at the hood...until it flips off and takes a trip!!
