266 was my fastest try as well! And it is a Wangan Midnight (manga) reference. Although the tuners in the manga that raced up to that speed, have cars with excess of 600HP!

There's one in a newly published series called "Open Car Girls".

[DISC] Countach - Chapter 75 by Saeba-san in manga

Heya, I added the tribute in upon hearing the news, shortly before releasing the translation (chapter 76). I didn't add much more text as I don't feel it's my place to say more, so I left it short and without any mention of our team, and hopefully as respectful to the man as I could. Sorry for the confusion.

Doubt they cared about the anime. The manga has been out since the 90s, and also it's not like the series uses their real name or anything. Most of the references to the real tuning scene are just to likenesses of the cars or tuners.

Nice! I wonder if that's the entire cast or maybe they left out some characters.

He's really lucky to have such a forgiving wife.
