is this possible 170mph in a corrado g60?

[Supercharged 2]

That was the original record breaking corrado mate!

Ok how?

 

A regular G60 can't do 170 can it?

Presumably a taller 5th or much higher revving. Definately more power as well.

hmmm thats pretty cool. 16vG60?

I wonder if I got the gearing right on mine whether I could hit that?

[Jim 1]

Would love to know if there is a full article and history about that car somewhere. All I've ever seen is that picture!

assume this must be the g60 that held the record for the fastest average continuous speed over 24hr for a supercharged car?

All G60s can do 170mph, just disable the rear spoiler, :lol:

 

In the first pic it's not raised.

Unfortunately not. James gets 171 at bruntingthorpe with vr gears more power and less weight.

Yeah, which is why people are saying 170mph not 274mph :cuckoo:

Grumble, I guess this means I need more power and less weight :lol:

I wouldn't be surprised to find the interior is totally bare, except for the driver's seat, a roll cage and a rev counter. The door mirrors have gone and it looks like the boot is strapped down, rather than use a heavy lock. So lots of weight saving there.

Anyone know what the holes in the back screen are for?

Anyone know what the holes in the back screen are for?

 

So the driver can poo out the back window when things get a bit hairy?

Some say his toenails are painted Brtish Racing Green. Some say he ejaculates at 274.2kmh.
