Default well done JCB......350mph out of a diesel
they hit 350mph yesterday in their dieselmax car. The car didnt even get into last gear!!!! The thing thats amazing is the fact that the engine is the same as what powers the back load diggers.................check it out here

They only used 1200bhp out of 1500 available......
