Homer Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 It's been discussed a few time matey, but you probably won't find the thread by searching. Lets say some have had over 200mph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Harwood Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 Legally, 70 Recorded on a track from a standing start, 178 Other, off the clock by about a 20mph increment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 we're talking leptons, right guys.... OFF THE CLOCK!!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 Off the clock, 172 GPS. Its amazing how much the speedo's are out! Edit, i mean 176 GPS, Sorry! I cant remember which one it is.....i best go out "testing" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 Off the clock, 172 GPS. Its amazing how much the speedo's are out! Not my new SpeedM8 - in fact it very slightly under reads according to Road Angel. It is calibratable. I had 170 out of a J spec TT I'd only just bought and backed off as I didn't know the car and it all felt rather odd at that speed (There was more to go). (Following my friend in an M3 CSL which got 180) Not tried in the VVTi due to the changing of gears issue at WOT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogmaw Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 165 leptons, the only restriction in getting speeds like this is finding somewhere to do it in reasonable safety Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smithy23 Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 had 165 on the clock on me 18s, but i think the uk specs are limited to 155 leptons. Anyone know how to get it off? Was still pulling hardish and just lost the power suddenly, backed off and me mate was shaking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BURT Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 At the southend monthly meets first night:d lol... he was the first person to get a test drive in the supe when it was done... but when i let him have a go he broke it lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorin Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 J-Spec BPU and about where 185 would be (speedo a fair bit out at those sorts of speeds though) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 only just had my speedo fixed last week.. not worked since i had the car... ill give it a try soon:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoboblio Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 only just had my speedo fixed last week.. not worked since i had the car... ill give it a try soon:) Hehe a friend's dad had the same problem on his TVR (one of many obviously). When we asked him how fast he'd gone his reply was "other cars were a blur.... no idea how you measure that in MPH". And mine was just under 160 leptons (private track, runway, I'm a good boy etc blah blah blah). Haven't got a big enough manhood to go faster than that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Sherwood Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 My VVTi 6 speed will go off the clock in 5th @ 8000 rpm. Want to do an acurate top speed run when its back in action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
