Ronnie did over 200mph for a FastCar feature a while back with Glen when he had his R34GTR, im sure that was Brunters. Il have to dig out the mag.

What does everyone think about stability at high speed? In the 3door at 7k or so in top on the M-way the car felt perfectly stable to me, dunno about other cars

Lets not forget that its taken Rod and Mark to build a GENUINE 600bhp+ engine with a Proper Turbo and then stick a load of NOS up its ass to get to 201mph on a 1.7mile straight...
I just don't believe an RS500 touring car with all the spoilers on did 200mph on a T4 without Gas.

I remember hearing about it on the radio ages ago - could all just be poppycock as my memory isn't that great!
