onestep 0 Posted June 23, 2011 Some nice photos. Whats the new track like there? The new track is really good takes a while to get the right lines. Fast and technical one of my fav tracks now will be def going back again. Never seen so many cars going home with problems tho. I cracked one of my front discs in to.

onestep 0 Posted September 3, 2011 Yes i will put them up soon but right now im gagging for a beer. The white mrc rs4 b5 span off at 204mph blew out all his tyres and went down to his alloys and flat spotted all his wheels mental. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blue95 0 Posted September 5, 2011 Hi guys and gals just back from vmax corrado did me proud my top speed of the day was 182mph wicked day out. Congrats mate! VERY IMPRESSIVE! How did the C handle at that speed? what was the wind noise like? Been watching the videos and getting an adrenalin rush just watchin them!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
onestep 0 Posted September 5, 2011 It handled not to bad really but the runway is very bumpy and loads of loose stones on it my rear wheels are chipped to f**k now. Didnt really notice the wind noise concentrating on aiming the car thought the timing beams at the end of the runway. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coullstar 0 Posted September 5, 2011 What gearbox are you running to get that speed!!! Impressive figures, they do handle those speeds very well. I maxed mine out and it felt very stable but that was probably 20mph down on your figures. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DANG60 0 Posted September 5, 2011 Very nice car mate, I'm building mine up a similar way to you albeit using standard size bore and standard pistons. Hoping for high 300's. What turbo are you running something like a 3071? You have anymore details of your engine spec? I understand if you want to keep it to yourself.

poll250 0 Posted September 5, 2011 Wow that is impressive! I clocked mine by accident the other week and felt there was more to give. Would like to go to a VMAX day and see what's possible, although my rev limiter is lower so I'd imagine 170 top? Great work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
