How fast on the road???

[elms]

This could be quite a controversal one. Lets have a poll...whats the fastest youve (alledgely) been on the road (private or autobahn of course!?!) and in what?. It is proberly a good idea to put private road after each entry just to keep the sandal wearers happy!! Please no bulls**t

Fastest for me was 168 on my Yamaha R6 and an indictated 150 in my old sapphire cosworth. I heard of a german guy who drove his Macca F1 over to Woking for a service. When they plugged in the diags it read that he had exceeded 200mph three times in the previous 24hrs!!! And he had his wife with him...what a chick!!!

So it was you in the Boxster S last Friday on the A14 between the A1 and Kettering?

Next time we hit 155mph and your limiter kicks in, do you mind moving over so I can continue making progress?

Hee Hee, just laughed out loud!!! Good call M-five

My bruv had a Caterham Superlite with aero screen. How I laughed when his woolly hat blew off his head at 110 on the M25. To quote Smokey and the Bandit Junior "Daddy. my hat blew off!", Sherriff "Shame your head wasnt in it!!"
