Answer:

Basically, at these speeds, the car will, at random times, swerve a bit to one side or the other as if hit by some huge wind (even on the calmest of days). It doesn't happen at slower speeds driving mechanically identical cars, managed to accelerate to a formidable 150 mph and stay there for most of the journey, shifting to higher gears and remaining.

Hope this helped you!
