Although there aren't any limits on the open roads on the Isle of Man, the coppers can still nick you for the 'furious driving' offence, if you're deemed to be driving on the wrong side of silly. Better keep to my side of the road when i'm doing 120 on the isle of man then!

Along the autobahn where there was a section for free speed, I achieved 220km/h (137mph) on a slight downhill gradient. Take away 5% for the speedo tolerance - 209km/h (130mph) approximately..... It was fast enough for a car this size.

Next time you do this set your digital speedo to read out MPH and you will get a more accurate reading, its usually 10% less!!!

When people quote "I've done 140mph its actually not"... Its about 128Mph in real terms, but let them think they are going that fast

A lot of other people seem to have done 134 - 137mph, so surely 142mph (with mods) is achievable. Or am I missing something about Prodrive?

Yeh.. The track is big but not that big. Most people (incl myself) got 90-100 and that was pushing it.

They may have been expert drivers, i've seen the way the racing drivers push those little lotus elises around silverstone for driving experiences, no car could even get near them!!! There was 800bhp skylines and the lot on the track!!!
