I wonder if 178.8mph would catch it or not.

So if they don't want to show it fine, Iam sure we wouldn't be having this trouble on the Skyline forum.

Dave.
Really?? Is Rod going to show the video there, in the Skyline forum??
pipe down and just wait.

Lads, no plot or anything like that.
Sunny has the vids in mpeg format for a week or so, however they wish to put a MAD watermark on them & so Sunny requires the raw Data from my sons camera. I have been unable to sort this because i have had family problems. On Monday i will get the Data in avi form on to CD & send it to Sunny/Andy & they will edit etc. Sorry for the delays for anyone who is interested in the clips but my mind/heart have been elsewhere.

Sorry to hear about your mother Rod.
I would love to see what your cossie looks like at 200mph plus!

I cant understand why people would bitch about MAD thou? I see it as progress, both yourself and Sunny are making great steps forward and it just so happens Mark is helping you achieve these goals. I say fair play and keep it up!!

No way!! in 8 years total cost is 60k including maintainance, This includes a 400bhp engine, 500bhp engine & 600bhp engine. My previous engines were sold for 11k so less than 50k over 9years , I consider this a Bargain.
The F40 would be too slow anyway even a Macca 1 is struggling to keep up over 100.
Rod
Macca 60-150 =9.6s
Cossie 60-150 =9.2s
Now how much do one of those cost.
