This thread is to hopefully save them the time of pouring through loads of data sheets and typing the stuff out. Also because we don't want to wait!

That and the fact that the Dazmobile seemed to have gone into stealth mode as far as the timing guys were concerned!

That is one nice sounding ve-hicle and I was impressed with your committment en route to Brunters; freezing conditions, rwd and no hint of grip breakage - impressive.

Left hand timing beams matched my GPS speedo perfectly at 183.

Do you want the 158 added to "the list"?

The 169 made me feel much better.

Add to the list. I reckon the laser was out

The red one is Neal's. Don't know his PH id. Mine was the silver one, richard (mancunian) had the dark blue one with the rear wing. All slightly different spec or modded hence the different speeds..

[dazren]

Cool. Didn't want to do duplicate entries for the same vehicle. I'll add them all to the list.

At last we find an area where the E36 beats the E46 CSL ! Although the CSL we ran against absolutely murdered us on launch and acceleration, my speedo was showing a smidge over 160, and we were clocking 160/161 (and finally 162) through the beams

[StuB]

I think I went through at 163 in the other black CSL, which was hitting the limiter way before the beams (by the plastic barriers IIRC). It did the same top speed all day too.

[s3am]

IIRC Badapple's limited CSL hit 164 all day a few times ago. So that sounds about right.
