148.14 mph

he had 150+ to 160mph terminals on his other runs, but with poor 60ft due to traction. (ie 2-2.9s 60ft!)

That's sub-4 to 100?

Without sounding too much like John McEnroe, surely you can't be serious?

Rich - When Mark was mapping it at Brunters it was doing over 200 and something mph at the first 'turn around point before half way down the straight' as easy as a walk in the park. I believe the rev limit and boost were not maxed out then...for safety!

It's just RAW power!

And dont forget, even tho thats feckin unbelivably fast, thats not "all" that fast compared to the fastest GTRs in the world. The fastest is 2 seconds ahead of that, and loads over a second faster 20mph+ faster terminal speeds

Fastest 4wd in Europe is a Sweedish EVO in with an 8.7@167mph
