Yeah, the V8 thing is great, gives us ins to all sorts of stuff that we would normally be shood away from for having a 'poxy low powered GTST' :D

Stavros loves a V8 as well mate - I reckon you would be a shoo-in :thumbs:

Gotta make sure you beat 182 mph that a Tigra (!) did the other day though ;)

Absolutely no chance, it was hitting its 6600 rpm limiter at around 130mph. We have swapped to a 7k limiter but its not going to give us legs for another 55mph!

longer final drive needed? would help a lot with traction too :nod:

shouldnt be too long now :no: if only i had any sponsors who could gain some publicity out of it :wack:

We will see, its not done a lot of work as yet so I want toi get some more miles on it before looking at altering the final drive. Its a drift and track car so as long as we dont top out often theres no need to gear it up :)

130 though... isnt much on a fast uk circuit (like Castle Combe) - i was hitting 120 in my 200 with blowing turbo gaskets :wack: surely you'll top out EASY!?

131mph with a 6600 limit, its got another 400rpm now so it should do 140+. If it tops out then Ill address it :) And Im talking properly timed speeds here, not read from the speedo. The fastest 700bhp+ full on top end TA car hitting 150 at the same spot, Zen (won TA last year) hit 148, Gary hit 140 with 600bhp. One of the longest straight is the back of Snetterton, Gary hit 150 down there with 600bhp. I dont think Ill have a major problem with 530bhp :)
