Speed Results for VII - Sunday 20/03

[kenyon]

Any results yet ?

Interested in what the 348 spider did.
Maybe quick if the roof is up Al....

Al's 348 got 160 I think (one time, with me driving it ).

[craigw]

results will be out tomorrow guys.

VMAX winner GUY R in the RUF GT2 196mph (god knows was speedo was showing)

pretty awesome though.

I think Al in the 348 managed 163mph but I could be wrong, will check.

157mph best I saw from the NSX all day, passengerless with mirrors folded in Quick through the corners though

Too flipping right! Last "real" run of the day & TD was chatting to Craig when we were waved off, so I assumed he wasn't playing...




... until he suddenly appeared in my mirrors as I was tunring in to the bottom bend! Just a tad quicker than the Alfa, then.

Gotta say I thought it was mix of great handling and equally good driving skill, Trackdemon(cheers again for the ride) really seemed to be getting every ounce of cornering out of that thing, we all over the porsches through the twisties. Made me laugh as TD said the braking wasn't very good in the NSX as he stood on them and my lungs banged against my ribcage!

[Muncher]

Agreed the NSX was awesome


I managed 130mph which felt bloody fast for a go kart!

I had been doing 159 steady, so i emptied the passenger seat and boot and got 161 on the laser read out. Tony must be light cos i then managed 160 with him in!

Roof up made about 5 mph difference, but was a lot noisier than with it down.

Yes, one of my favourite runs, what top speed did you get? Incidentally, what kind of power does yours have?

220-240 BHP depending on what dyno and how much you deduct through transmission loss, its de-catted and chipped though, but its been running slower since that so i'll be changing it back to just precats.

I think peeps are quite surprised by the 3.2 engine in the rollerskate !!

139mph, consistently all day, 136 with the roof off all day !!
