Fighting Torque ?

[Gadgeroonie]

is anyone going ?

perhaps some of us should show up and fly the noble Flag

Adrian - are you tempted to go back

Funky - your car should do well at this event

its a drag race right?...been discussing this with a few people but not sure its practical in a noble as we will max out way too early to be competitive, top speed is not our strength.

Adrians Noble has won it before V max 174mph after 3/4 mile, but due to increased rpm his car was capable of 190mph - 195mph, that is easily enough top end.
You have alot of torque so you will pull hard all the way to the redline in 6th, you know your car is perfect for this, i have seen what the single turbos were capable of in a drag rade from the US forums, your everyday supercars don't stand a chance, but 720bhp ultimas may put up a fight, if any are going.
Do you have a quick shifter on your car?

I think they have extended the distance since Adrian did it hence we wot be competetive anymore IMO

Im thinking more about doing 10 of the best lol

it 1 mile now ? Thats pants, although i still think they would spend the last 1/4 trying to catch you up.

I think its 1.25 miles now... yes it technically can get close to 200mph as like Adrians mine will rev to 7850rpm, but not keep on doing it as the noble is a brick at those speeds.
