166mph in my old played with 850R giving the finger to my mates Evo5 that struggled past 150
cartoonhead (Friday 18th June 2010)
212 mph indicated on private runway not too far from Poole harbour.
Ok it wasn't in the car but on a lightly fettled 'Busa - Felt as rock solid and safe at that speed as at 50 mph - but don't try waving at anyone at that speed
130mph in my old Golf GTi powered Skoda Felicia estate
135mph in my 850 T5
160mph in my supercharged 3.5 litre V8 powered '82 Ford Transit
175mph in my old race prepped Honda Prelude 2.2 VTEC
230mph in my old pro street drag Chevy Camaro (twin supercharged 9.4 litre big block V8)
I'm waiting for Russ to post in here with his Yellow Peril

"It's really fast, and growls like a tiger!"
My T5 is pretty fast and stable but I was to busy concentrating to look at the speedo. I'd like to do a flying mile day just to see.
My 68 Camaro did 0-107.28 MPH in 6.922 seconds and the 1/4 in 10.594 seconds @ 133.21 MPH on it's last run against a quite nippy Audi rs something or other. The Audi ran a 13.126 seconds @ 116.00 MPH so it was no slouch.
I don't know what it will do top end and the speedo only goes to 120MPH but it used to make the dotted lines join up

The drag Supra and the rig (as she currently stands) are both out there (out there being Canada).
The Supra is running a supercharged and turbo charged 9.4 litre Chevy V8 (we love those engines, swear by them for our drag cars) running just shy of 1500hp. Does the 1/4 mile in low to mid 10s at the moment, just can't get the traction down fully. When it can plant the power down without just spinning the wheels, should run mid 8s. Just the start that is killing us at the moment with that one.
I'm gonna run the rig and hopefully get that running the 1/4 mile in 12 seconds, that's my aim.
I like going very very fast if you hadn't guessed?
