so.. for the first time, I own a swift car. In the past the quickest car i've had topped out around 120mph, so the autobahn was very easy to max it out in safety, however with a ~155mph limit, it becomes more difficult to find the time/space to get there (also, I can't get over to germany).
Aside from VMAX, which appears to be top secret and hard to get into, are there any events for doing high speed runs? I can't think of any UK trackdays with *really* long straights (I don't think santa pod is very long?) - do any of the high speed rings (milbrook/wokingham) have run what you brung days?
Cheers!
Hugh

Drop Craig a mail about Vmax. There are often last minute drop outs.

RAF Marham do a 30-130 day once a year, you can run on after 130 to get a vmax.

Depends what you have but the back straight at Bedford and should get to over 120 or Rockingham. I think I saw 130 at Bedford in my 993 cant remember exactly though to be honest.
