How many people actually reach their true vmax, i.e. run out of revs in top gear? I suspect there's not many who do.


I'm trying to find out my vmax at the minute but I don't think I am far off it at all.

Not me. My 143 was just below the rev limiter in 5th so had a nother gear to go.

Unfortunately due the amount of downforce created at that speed it was accelarating very slowly by then so I would need a lot more room to get it up to its proper max which would be about 150

Top end speed isnt what my car is designed for though.

Hi sam,
Yeah, I could feel the damn thing holding it back.
Wish i'd had it delimited now knowing the extra mph your bro got.

Did you take his car out? Was there more go?

Yeah I took it out and got 168. I still think its stonking at 169-170. PhatGixer's got 164 last time, but the beams were a little further forward IIRC.
Best.

Ben, welcome to the site, would you please change your login name to something less emotive.

[PHmoderatorhatoff]

Slinky & Graham. Would you two Gents please do the honours with changing Ben's speed to 181?

Why was there such a big difference between the Murcielago's?


Testicles
