I thought it was 206mph 4 up?

I only think this as my manager at work was asking me about the monaro who clocked 200+ at Vmax smile

But Dodge have just made this exercise a little cheaper and with four doors too.

There is a lot of kudos in baking your own though smile

206 is all she's got with the current gearing.
Love to see any production 4 seater get anywhere close at Bruntingthorpe solo, let alone 4up smile

As he's forever reminding people....I believe Rod's Sierra did around 206.1mph a few years back. Which fair enough is a damn good result, even more so for a 4cyl car.

Unofficially it hit 210mph

Seems earlier it did 201 at Brunters and 206 at Woodbridge.

It was a flat out run up sort of deal same as Vmax does. Not sure if Woodbridge or Brunters has more room to achieve a speed ?

I was at Woodbridge when a road Hayabusa pulled 265 about 6 years ago so we still have some work to do! wink

If I were Jez I'd use a different platform to the Ro but it's his money.
