Unofficial speed thread...

[ThatPhilBrettGuy]

Just chatted to AdrianW. He did get a 180mph run in. I though he must have done as we were dead level on one of my 180's for some time and through the beams. Update please!

Now maths was never my strong point Leon but using your sums that means that mine will be about 900bhp with the same juice...... Demon Tweeks here I come!

Mark - I reckon that, if you ditched the Multi-gym out of the boot and the free weights from the glove box you would be on the pace....

[quote=drhildr]Well then the thumbscrews would have to come out...

I made it my goal to match your score Leon - last run, on my own, nearly empty tank etc so pretty much a last gasp effort but gave me something to work to.

What did Mikey get in his Gallardo Coupe?

My quickest was 182 last year , only ever managed that once, loads of 179/180/181 though.

Some big speeds yesterday..is it the most ever into the 190's?

Wish i'd been there to see the PCGT + the 997 TT of the line!

Simon had you left your handbrake on?

[Polarbert]

He says here: http://pistonheads.com/gassing/topic. That he only went to watch.

nastywej, you are a very lucky guy to have experienced a G Spyder. I went in Dougs yesterday and my god it was an amazing time.

[GuyR]

What a fantastic set of results, sorry I couldn't be there, but I was 6,000 miles away.....

Fantastic to see so many cars in the 190s.......

Much as I dislike metric mileometers I'll just mention that everyone who did over 187 exceeded 300kph.

Don't know, he hasn't posted. Although having chatted with the owner of the car at VMAX, he confirmed it was putting out about 500bhp.

[Polarbert]

Such a stealthy car. Loved the fact it didn't have any badges on the back.

[flying Trotter]

Daz - what did DeR manage - I also don't see the C4S's number - both Finn and I were at 170mph - would be good to know how it performed

[GregE240]

Think DeR managed a 183? Although allegedly scored higher than that?

[craigw]

the RS6 did 169mph.

Don't know. Don't think beetlespurter was running in full nucleur mode on the day.

Craig, can you fill in any other gaps?
