Think this is genuine appeared in my guestbook today.
Been told many times on here that they did 200+ in the Touring cars. This guy should know.

POWER/TORQUE : up to 570bhp
MODIFICATIONS : group A touring car spec from eggenberger
COMMENTS : My how its changed since my day!never went above 187mph despite rumours to the contary. well done

 

What track in the UK could you ever have cracked 200 at in those days?

 

Millbrook proving ground probably , on the oval, believe it was used before Brunters became more popular.

 

Maybe on test days??

must be so excited now Rod, i'm looking forward to getting my cossie stage 3'd on friday, you must be shaking like a dog shitting bones

 

Must have done that somewhere Rich.

You have probably spent more on your car than him though.

 

I'm not knocking what Andy Rouse says -by god he'll know.

Just wondered if people had said they did 200, it can't have been during racing conditions!

 

I thought Rouse built his own cars and Rudi Eggenburgers cars were the competition?

 

those speeds were acheived at bathurst not in the uk

 

sorry to piss on you bonfire rod but why the fook would andy rouse be claiming to have an eggenberger car pmsl

 

Kevin Sharp, try and keep up

 

in the 80's i think people would have fell over on their shoulder pads at the thought of a sierra topping 200mph

 

they were not that far out Lee.

 

Did MADRod race in touring car then?
I bought the video, but didn't see him in it

 

nar, he was retired.

 

very true Dave, but even now in 2005 we are still at rods acheivments...so imagine 15+ years ago!

 

Hasn't your guest book also been signed recently by Ayrton Senna too rod

 

True Lee.

Tony....

 

@ Tony

 

pmsl.. what a c*nt!

 

make that razor blades (alkaline trio rock )

 

 

Did the Dick Johnson cars manage 200mph down Conrod then? What were the Richards' Skylines doing on the same bit out of interest?
