Just downloaded the data from my 200mph run. These times were achieved with a misfire every gear change & clearly shows what the lack of Nitrous does above 190mph.
100-160 = 8.09
100-170 = 11.98
100-180 = 14.34
100-190 = 17.55
100-200 = 25.19
With a known 0-100 of 7.15 this would mean a 0-180 of 21.48.
a Macca 1 is 23.0.

This is two up with a maniac senior citazen changing the cogs not the guru Mr Shead im chuffed. .
These times are fast for a 15 year old Taxi , fully trimmed . .
To the Knockers get to Brunters & beat them or keep quiet.

 

Very impressive indeed Rod
Incidentally, do you have a timed 0-150 for comparison purposes if you dont mind please.

 

thats a achivement there rod

the macca is a old car now though remember

 

ACCLERATION

SPEED SECS

0-50 3.55

0-60 4.09

0-70 4.61

0-80 5.26

0-90 6.39

0-100 7.15

0-140 11.85

0-150 13.30

 

rod my car is 2 seconds off you 0-120 time and over a second slower than 0-60 so my 60-120 time is about 1 second slower than you am i right

 

Senior citizens Rule

Stuart, (trainee coffin dodger)

 

ops its 3 seconds slower 0-120 so 2 seconds slower 60-120 i am still impressed

 

Sounds right if so a fast car low down.
Remember these times were set on the 201.8 day with 200+ gearing & Road Tyres @ 40psi. Will see what can be done with BFG Drag Radials & lower gearing if we get the chance.
The 100-180 time recently achieved is almost 2 secs quicker than on the day those old figure were achieved so lots to come yet. I only deal in facts so at the mo they are the cars standing start PB's. .

 

no point having all that power if things just break

Think ill take the macca

 

Yea but how bad would you feel when sapph cos comes past you giving a smug grin and a little wave of the hand after you went out and spent Ł600,000 on your macca F1

 

even worse when ya see him him waving his hand with his leather driving gloves and flat cap on his head then the next view is his tartan rug in the rear shelf

then the fooker parks in the disabled bay so is also the first one to the shops when you have to park on the 43rd floor

 

I will take mine & Ł550,000 change
By the way have been competing in the car for over 3 years & its the first time the car did not perform a pity cos i wont be going back to Totb whatever pressure is applied.
On the road it would not have broken im sure & its a road car that i regularily comute to work in & that accleration is used a lot YEP!! Nitrous & all, the buzz is unreal. Why not arrange a ride at some time it may stop your sly knocking of my car. .
Rod

 

what has tits gotta do with this ,, good times though

 

Think it will be faster with the BFGs , if theres any tread left

 

amazing stuff Rod!

doubt it will be matched for a very long time!

but you never know eh??

 

Did 3 runs on the day over 195mph didnt realise one of the other runs was quicker acclerating. So revised times below.

100-160=7.90
100-170=11.75
100-180= 14.10 - ( 0-180 about 21.25)
100-190=17.25)
only got to 199.6 on this run

 

rod wait till i build my engine, be afraid, be very afraid

 

madrods cars fast, but hes still an attention seeking old bloke, thts why noone likes him.

 

im sensing a atmosphere in here now

cant think why

infact moaning about rod is now more boring than him talking about his old 200mph achivement

 

AWESOME TIMES ROD!

KEEP IT UP FELLA

 

Oh my sides! Fuck me Ginge, thats one of your better ones that is!

 

thats just mind blowing mate,, well impressed

I'll give 100 quid to charity if i could have a ride in this beast

 

Dont think Jealousy can be treated on the NH, you have to conquer it yourself matey. Dont need you or anyone else to like me chum its facts that you young Herberts cant stand, if it gets to you, just dont reply tis easy. Some like facts they are usually the ones with fast cars .

 

 

Don't think its the facts that do it Rod, its replies like that, that constantly shove it up peoples noses!

No ones saying its not fast, he commenting on you!

 

Which I seldom did as i said their is a search engine find those posts .
Rod

 

[quote="Dan"]What have i stuffed up anyones noses mate i seldom start a post on this board , go check. They are facts & you lads find that hard , i said at the start they were the data from my run at Brunters & if your a knocker go to another thread but as i said before jealousy sometimes over rules your brain, go to another post tis easy.

 

You keep on chattin about it Rod cos im interested

Lee recently did a properly timed 0 - 150 in 18 seconds which i thought was pretty good given his now trademark missed gearchanges So your 13.3 gives me a little perspective on how yours goes compared to his.

Like you say... the numbers are usefull to those who arent remotely jealous and are genuinely interested.

 

[quote="MADRod"]Neither am I knocking it or finding the 'facts' hard to handle, fair enough you did it, wicked acheivement as most people say, who said you didn't!?

I was pointing out that he was commenting on you not the car or the times! If you read it again, he does say your car is fast, fact!

 

fookin flyin

 

I take it you dont know him?

Hes one of the nicest guys you can meet and hes genuine with it ...the fact the owns a 200mph+ car is a bonus to him, its not his life as thers more to that!!! He tells it how he sees it ...what do you see?

 

genuine post ,why get personal

Top achievement ,any one who had the car or the times would be well chuffed
those who havent can bitch all they want

 

so true

btw rod i was taking the piss and defendingnya with humor

for that im gonna add my secret weapon to my engine and really beat ya,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,










well thats if i can find my bleed valve

 

 

nice figures rodders.... but i hope you dont mind if i mention that my old car did 0-150 in 13.03 and maybe even went faster than that but i just dont keep all my timing slips.

 

well done rod.

 

nice one rod

 

fair play I hope I can do shit like this when i'm 60, and not just poke small children with my walking stick and complain about the price of half a mild

wonder what the car would do with a propper drag racing set up , I know it kinda defeats the object of it being a road car but it would be very very interesting , and no one can say its not a sicko fast car still in full road trim

 

Absolutely amazing performance!!

I'm really pleased you post your times as it's great to compare my own cars acceleration with yours even though mines slower! Gives me an idea of what can be achieved though!

 

amazin times rod. well done
