I remember Ultima mentioned about attempting to go for 0-200mph-0 record. It was several years ago but just thought I bring it up as the front page article on this site mentioned that John Hennessey will be trying to do a 0-200mph-0 with a Venom.

As I have seen an Ultima GTR with 826bhp do a 0-211mph on street tires, I would assume it'll out do the Venom in this test. I'm thinking if this 800+hp GTR can do 0-211mph in 19 secs then 0-200mph would be somewhere in the region of 16-17 secs. With some sticky tires, the GTR can probably do it in low 20s?

Besides, the GTR already have the 0-100mph-0 record under its belt. Would be nice to see it go for this record as it's F1 performance territory.


Yeehaa!!! Woohoo!! Come on Ultima, let's conquer the 0-200-0mph record!!!!

Jeff did 0-200mph in 23 secs, and back to 0 in 12 secs. So it's 35 secs. I would think mid 20s is possible.

Jeff did his at 7000 feet or there abouts. It would be intresting to see what the N.A. 720hp factory car could do at sea level. Lee
