Yeah I deffo remember the Top Secret one on the M1 but he didn't actually get to 200 did he? Got cornered by them T5's before he could get that high IIRC...

And I do remember the mag and video for the Evo doing the Hatfield tunnel....

From what I heard he didn't get cornered by them at all, he smoked the T5 without any problem, but he knew the cops couldn't do shit if they caught him, so he pulled over.

Dunno if he managed 200mph thou.

It was the Norris Evo 5 hitting 188 on the limiter through Hatfield tunnel that was in Max Power a good while back.

i sti;; got the feture, they tried the top speed run and they got caught when they started taking the mags closeup photos, the ones where there on the foot bridge are the top speed ones


oh and he did get caught as the did set up other cars from the further junctions to box him in


the nicked him abd he claimed he didnt speak english and he went cought whilst in custody next day

fair play to him though for trying, wasnt fooking slow either
