Although the Macca did it at the VW testing facility not Nardo, so i'm not entirely sure what Porkie is getting at.. A modified, not strictly road legal car beats a standard, road legal car.. I think it will have to do more than 241.1mph to get any sort of record in that stakes (Thrust SSC anyone??
)
why isn't it Road legal? Of course I would MUCH rather have the Macca BUT it WAS also modified.... Raised rev limit IS a mod. OR they would have released it to the public like that!
If Evo magazine say its a Record, I believe them!
Top mag, great read
