at vmax they dont brake so late that they risk crashing, the marker isnt at the very end, normally when people go with the mags use the maximum distance they can get away with to give them the best chance.
So that makes the top speed of the M5 at brunters even more impressive then?
Mike what marker did you use to acheive your top speed? Also Rod at 500bhp did you use the same marker as VMAX? Or whatever power you have acheived your top speeds?
