here's a quote from the quickest pensioner around


"Mine beats a Macca 1 easily, (28secs) but not the mighty Veyron. We would settle for 0-200 in 21 secs, this is the Target. 24 at the mo, but another 150 horses next time, no chance of beating the Veyron to 200 im afraid may hold him to 180 though, then the taxi sign gives too much drag." .
Rod

the veyron does 19.95 just to compare

The silver AMS evo from the states that runs 8s at 160+?

Never done a top speed run has it?

But its done 165 in just under 9secs, so id guess WELL under all the above times inc the Veyron.

1041 awhp record holding Black and Silver Evo ?

In 2006 AMS continued to run quicker times in the Drag Evo 8 working down to a 8.97 @ 165 mph.
Board freaked out again, and Stavros beat me

Also IIRC in testing Keith Cowies Skyline was doing 225mph within 3/4 of a mile from a standing start with about 1000bhp.

Now it is, im talking about what keith/mark said on its old spec engine (which was nowhere near the power the new one is) when mapping at brunters and on testing the day before TOTB.

Maybe it was 215, either way, mental.

The engine was Dynoed at 613bhp @ 2.1bar on a GT35 thats our only figure & thats on Pump Fuel.
When it ran 201 it ran 2.5bar & a 150 shot, it had a restrictinve exhaust & a very inefficient nitrous set-up. At the end of the straight it had about 690bhp we estimate.
The 206 was run on the above Spec + gt40 & Race Fuel a decent exhaust & a 200shot we guess 800 max.
When we split the Block it had the new 'push systen fitted which gives at least the full 200 shot all the way down. Estimate 850+.
The new Spec engine has a different (Mark says I cant tell) Turbo & much wilder cams. Again I cant suggest Power from the engine, but the Target figure is silly & it will be close to the magic 1000bhp on the gas & I aint one for Bullshit. It will be Dynoed off the gas as its a lot of aggro to fit the nitrous on the Dyno & it will be RR with the full bash.
It will be around 200bhp more than when the 206 was run, but remember we hit 210 in that Spec unofficially as well. Power wise we should hit 215 in 1.5 miles, but Im not sure even Mark can hold his nerve at that sort of speed its a very hairy ride at 210 & near the cars limit. 212 will see an end to this lunacy.

...tbh to take a car that was only ever designed to do 150mph and go and do 212mph is pure lunacy and a death wish IMO....i think you are lucky to be here by hitting 200mph and i would certainly think before you try for the new speed...you have done it IMO the first to 200mph thats the only magic number there is for that car anymore is pointless and too risky.

..i mean taking my sierras past 130mph felt hair raising to say the least ...i took the amg to its limiter the other night and it felt so safe..

I'd do the same Gareth!

Phil, have you actually been in Rods car at that speed?

If you look at the attention to detail he has, I'm sure its as safe as it can be.

Put it this way, I'd rather be doing 200 in rods car, than on your bike!

Anyway, I didn't know taking cars to the limiter was your scene, didn't you used to get scared after 3rd gear in your Saph?
