Gents,

I still have a few places available for vmax on 7th July, some awesome machinery coming, be good to see some of TVR's big boys coming out to play, mail me asap if you'd like more details. it's one of the only opportunities to really go for your top speed somewhere wide, long & free of gatsos!

More details on vmax forum/mail me.

Cheers,

Craig

not many Tivs left the factory under that, let alone 5/10 years on.

We've had standard Sagaris, T350, tamora, Cerberas, Griffiths, Chimaeras, no problem at all/

I thought sports pipes and a decat were mandatory. 98Db - only from about 100 metres away!

well when ferraris & lambos and some Porsches were being flagged up they were fine.

£175 quids to drive the car on rough tarmac? drive all that way to only have to slow down at 170 before hitting the hill????

VMAX AutoBahn.... now that would be interesting

[CraigW]

SXS, why do you have to slow down before getting to the crest? you may need better brakes if thats the case.

as for the cost, pls show me another straight as long in the uk that you can get for less, elvington now only 1 mile.

Maybe SXS means The hill, at the End of the runway.

2 miles of acceleration..170mph...The hill.....new form of 'launch technique'
I think...

Ps,
Don't forget, the VMax gatherings have best and most pleasant petrol heads
in the world.
