I'll tell you guys aswell! smile
Went to Brunters today, had a Journo called Bruce Dunn come and lend his services for the day, with his expensive 2D data logging equipment.

First run was 199.97mph, wind up or what!?
second run with mirrors folded back 199 and a little less...

The revs were really high at over 7000+, so i stuck my trackday slicks on as they were marginally taller..
oh and folded the mirrors back out..smile

and bingo 202!

...a light weight plastic body helps. At last years Thunder Road my brother smoked everything up to 100mph and his Griff only has 280hp.

Well done Brummie, the combination you have obviously works very well. While the rest of us bolt FI to our supertankers to get them moving, you've adopted the Colin Chapman approach.

I know that the weight helps, but that shouldn't take anything away from cracking the double ton. Super achievement. cool
