Subject: Hi mate
Message: Hi Rod
We would like to come over to UK and try to beat your record... just need to get hold of a 9" 3.11 rear diff for my mates car.

Do you think we could meet up for this where you did your run?

What diff and transmission are you using?

Cheers
Asim

If its Anders Hedman (formally from Malmo but now living in Norway and still running his tuning firm in Sweden) its a claimed 900+bhp 3dr running a GT42.
I sold him my 3.6 ratio 9 inch diff in 2006.

Hi
Have received 2 PM's quoting who this guy is, one quotes the actual horsepower of his car so im fairly sure its him. Hes a member of this Forum or was in 2006. Its not the car quoted using the GT42 Turbo.
Ive told him to come on the Forum & introduce his car.
Thanks Rod

If its the car I think, its this one:

I dont need to do anything only give him info, its up to others to beat the record not me organise a race. The car is quoting a mere 610bhp & has no idea whats required to run near record speeds hes at least 300bhp short of whats required. The 900bhp car would be a challenger thats for sure but its up to them not me.

Ahhh... things are making sense lol

The car is very real, as is Fredrik who is a lovely bloke.

I believe there is a new engine going in it - one of a few I know of that are almost finished and that are aiming for four figures without nitrous.
Having said that with 600bhp it won't get past Rod's top speed as is. It is however, bloody lively the few times I've seen it at events.

There are a few other cars that are going to be ready this year, one in particular I can think of that will be absolutely out of this world, actually no at least two, that will be out of this world and if all goes to plan will be heading to the UK for some fun!

A few unmissable events are being planned for 2008 so it should get interesting this year for sure...

Not to mention our eagerly awaited Rod vs Ade Grudge Match

Hi guys

Im the man in question... im as real as a person can be
No need for the insult regarding my name or background!!!

Back to the question i asked.... Breda`s car is probably the best allround car that is on the streets in Norway at the moment.

Last summer was the first year the car was finished, sorted out some faults, but the car ran without much problem, and is currently resting in the garage.

We are not saying this car can beat the record, but it would be cool to try.... we, or at least me, know what this car is capable of... the only problem is, its got the wrong diff to make that sort of speed.

As soon as a diff i sorted... we will do some test runs....

BTW, the car easily runs flat out to the redline (8000rpm) in 5th gear at the moment with a tremec tko 600 gearbox, 9" motorsport diff with 3,64 ratio.....

Did you guys se this film?

Welcome Asim, great to see you on here. I use the TKO600 & a Jaguar Diff which is a 3.54 ratio.

Your box & Diff will see 200mph @ 8K on 235/40/18 Tyres.
