so with 165 wheels about 180 fly i made 149.9

lets round that to 150 mph.

871/ 165 = 5.3

5.3 times 150 = 795mph!!!

Man thats gonna be quick

Well done, assuming this isn't a wind up

Is there a graph, and is this beast every going to do a trip trial at bunters? Would be nice to see a new challenger

PS - Very amusing paragraph Rod! I got to line three before the penny dropped

i think a graph should be put up just to shut everyone up, , ive seen the car numerous times at ava and its a total beast, the bhp figure does seem a bit high but u never know with alan, they do produce ace cars

No, it's not real, and yes, the car is justa figment of Martin's imagination.

He has actually got a saff, but it runs a stage 1 setup.
