I think a few are now getting whats involved . Mine takes 24.5 secs to reach 200 & the fastest we have gone means 210 was reached circa 7 secs later.


That's .7 second for each 1 mph at that speed to get that extra 1mph would require gaining about 60+m at the start. Think about it & you will see why it makes no difference .
Getting from 200-210 would have taken 600+m or so. It shows how early you need to be hitting 200 on the 1.5 mile straight. Remember mine was 11 secs quicker to 200mph than Martins but he beat me to 150mph it shows Power counts above 150mph not before.
