Default 200mph (in daytime!) on UK road- update- new vids added

http://bagpuss.swan.ac.uk/200sx/skyline200.wmv

Can anyone make out the road names? A-roads i think the signs say, but cant quite tell.

Still a big secret who it was doing it too...

I thought before i saw it that it was gonna be Nicholas Kiesa (ie ex-F1 driver) as hes done loadsa stuff like that, but its not, and the vid is meant to be a few years old...

I got an idea who it is tho

i couldnt recognise the signs but ive heard the story that the japanese guy who did it japan also did it here on the A1 going past peterbourgh. probably not the same bloke as i heard he got clocked over here doing 196mph but sounds like that stretch of road is popular for it!

harveys testing grounds!

also - did you see the miles per gallon needle showing close to 4!!

This is why he did it there.... lovely stretch with 4 lanes
He joined at the Brampton/A14 roundabout and left at the top of the page to Stilton

The other Max Power one was done through the A1 Hatfield tunnel if I remember rightly. Got the vid here too, but I think I saved it when Steve posted it last..

Theres no stretch straight enough or long enough near the Hatfield tunnel to do 200mph.
Maybe you are thinking of the Top Secret car in Japan, that did 200mph through a tunnel there

If i remember right you have to hit under just over 7500rpm to hit a genuine 200mph with std R34 gearing, looks to me like he hit 7400, so a lot closer than you think

thats nothing should see how fast my mates honda civic is, he was telling me he gets it to 140 all day long on motorways , does much more too



i quized it and he answer was its a jap import, there the fasterones like skylines



so i took him for a spin in the cossie and he was shitting himslef doing 80 in 30 zones and then crapped himself when i got on the m1 slip road accelerating from brent cross and when we was on the m1 was doing 115, he looked sick


imagine what a civi must feel like at 140 on motorway holding it there




thats fooking mental though , steve get ya can finished ffs , want a passenger ride ya promised

Nick Kiesas car has a std bottomend too.

You think they mad? Check these 2 vids out then, a black R32GTR doing speeds on the road that makes them other vids look like driving miss dazy
http://www.exvitermini.com/movies/wngn0.mpg
http://www.exvitermini.com/movies/wngn1.mpg

More, well i know of tons of vids, but not many good road ones apart from a few thats on my HD or on DVDs at home, and thats no good for anybody.

What id like to post is a vid of the Option top speed challenge, they dont use a brunters type thing, they got a 5.5km oval track with 45degree banks on the corners Ive got it saved on my HD but the site that hosted it is long gone, and its about 70meg.

Top video is Hatfield tunnel cos that's Fly the Max Power photographer sat next to him. He also waves at the other Max P photographers as they go past.

2nd one is prob Japan tho...
