Default The Forgotten 200mph Vids

The actual 201.8 run has never been shown before, Takes it to the wire on this run MAD bugger, it got missed off the last vid (my fault), only just come across it during a computer clear out.
I rather like the other vid of Mark trying to lay 700 horses down. Roll on some more suitable tyres.

Not a dig at all Rod so forgive me for asking but how come you don't pilot your own car on all the speed test runs that you do? I know from reading PF that you drove it too 198mph or something so fookin respect for that, but how come Mark does most of the runs?

Cool vids by the way, cheers

Cos hes 3mph Faster than me mate plain & simple.
At a recent Topspeed run Mark was also 3mph faster than MADAde.
Mark can, Most cant. Its Hairy stopping from 198.5mph , lose it & you are through the end at these speeds you are doing 100metres a sec. Didnt stop shaking for some time .
The next time you get up to 198.5mph , Think about having to stop in 300metres.
