Default Record run in Redline

Thought this article was not going to appear as it happened some time ago, but it aint bad really. Worth a look if your a MAD fan.
Incorrect gearing prevented a 210+ official record. Hope to be back soon with around another 100 horses.
Cheers Rod

One that came out last Friday, must admit it was a bit of a surprise as i thought they had decided not to run the article. Did Ford proud even if we did get beat by a 960bhp 8litre V10 Viper .
