Better keep to my side of the road when i'm doing 120 on the isle of man then! _________________________ 171bhp BTB 4-2-1 Manifold, FIA Homologated Sport Cat, Group N Rear Section Click here for my ST Group N rally replica

STPOWER Regular Registered: 07/11/05 Posts: 55 Loc: Germany	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. POWER _________________________ Rice Boy

POWER 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? _________________________

PinkRinse Fiesta Maniac Registered: 02/01/05 Posts: 6067 Loc: Shoreham-by-Sea, W. Sussex, UK	Yeh.. The track is big but not that big. Most people (incl myself) got 90-100 and that was pushing it. _________________________ 24/03/05 to 27/06/12 & I loved 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!!! _________________________
