That viper will definetaly raise the stakes a bit.

200+ mph

I very much doubt it. My money is on the high 170s.

I reckon it would need most of the M1 to crack 200?

Vipers from memory do have very long gearing, should be interesting!

Looking at Venom's profile the Viper did 178 over the standing mile......before the upgrade to ~800bhp! So 200 could easily be possible?

Have a bit of news myself - will have a new car by the time Brunters arrives; a 993 TT X50! Hooray! Am going to post the full details in the Porker forum now, and post in the TVR forum to (very) sadly say I am leaving the fold. Getting the car Saturday......cannot wait.

Best Regards


MOD.

Hi all,

Sorry work is manic and I not been keeping an eye on things.

Suffice to say I've managed to re-arrange my diary and I'll be bringing the Noble along as per normal. I've emailed Craig to confirm.

Remember, please just *ask* if you want a ride....

Ah, so the rumours were true. Nice one Martyn, look forward to seeing it (I am going to feel a bit inadequate on the drive down to Brunters, with you, deristrictor, domster all uber porkered up and me in my humble Tuscan).

Look forward to meeting you Joust, we were going to convoy at the last Vmax, but I had a TVR hiccup . I quite fancy a passenger ride in the Noble if that's OK?

Very much doubt you'll feel inadequate! Especially with your sports cans on full song

Ooohh.. counting the days! Can't wait - hope that Viper makes an appearance.

If anyone wants a ride in the red beast, just ask - it may not be the fastest on the day but it sure as hell sounds good

I'm leaving M11 Birchanger Services at 7.30 with a T350C & an MR2 if anyone wants to join up?

Cheers
