Re: Topspeed record of ITR (BlueR)

not a single problem. The speed gone up very very quick. I think it was like 10 seconds from 200 - 265 on speedo. And then Rev limit

I think this car can easy run 300

Re: Topspeed record of ITR (BlueR)

Ive had my needle pinned at 150mph...not sure what the ACTUAL speed was though. Either way, the car did feel very light and floaty, but it was also very stable and I felt like I was in complete control. And believe it or not, driving that fast WITH and WITHOUT the wing feels completely different.

Re: Topspeed record of ITR (BlueR)

In my *younger* days, I've hit the revlimiter in 5th.

No problem whatsoever.

The same thing happened 2 or 3 times with different cars (All Merc CLR) and different drivers. All drivers survived. Then they decided to stop joining the race....

I've *heard* that at 130, the car sill feels pretty good, although the tail starts to feel loose.

278 km/h would be the record Austrian is trying to break!!!

Re: Topspeed record of ITR (DutchITR1689)

I got up to 150 mph indicated with D coming come from Craig's one night. I guess that's about 144 and it still had a little left on the tach....Car was nicey nice smooth, but running a little rich and smelly.
