Kieth did do a 9.3 @ 160 on the day, but here is the in car footage of a 9.4 @ 158mph, remember, he can drive this car to Tesco if he wants and not get stopped, 100% road legal..be a brave man who actually took it out down the shops though lol, imagine you hit a pot hole and leant on the pedal that cm too much lol.

holy cow what car is driving for that run (i'm guessing a 4x4, perhaps skyline?)
looking at the trailor i'd be tempted to get the dvd myself but theres one major thing putting me off, Tim Westwood i can't stand him

lol he didnt actually turn up till half way through the day so I think they just got him to do a few bits. Hopefully he wont be in the finished DVD that much lol.
The in car video is Kieth Cowies Skyline, fastest European road legal 4wd. 9.3 @ 160mph is his best time, it's bonkers.
It's an R32 GTR Skyline, the white one seen racing the gold supra in the trailer vid, they estimate it at 1000-1100bhp IIRC and it weighs around 1100kg lol.

Wow That car would embarrass some big superbikes.

lol, indeed, it would take more than just a normal superbike to keep up I reckon though, the purpose built road legal drag bikes were only doing about half a second faster at most IIRC
0-160 mph in 9.3 seconds the car can pull, within 400metres I cant even imagine how fast that feels.
