I thouigh so before but now this video confirms to me atleast anyway that the dyno that you guy\'s went to on the 5th reads incorrect. The has the acceleration on around 346 at the rear wheels definitely not the flywheel.
Nice vids mate but careful out there.

Noble\'s are definitely conservative, I said this before we went, but not that conservative surely:confused: ?

Good vids Babz, but ocean is no where to be seen! ;)

Nic vids babz. But be careful posting this type of thing mate!! Not wanting to pee on your bonfire but it may not be such a great idea posting video\'s of youself running that type of speed? Just a thought ( ill get off my soapbox now).

Isnt the acceleration on the FD amazing??? Still blows me away when the 2nd turbo kicks in. Awesome.

ive had plenty of dirty look from the old bill but nothing else :D

the speedo is in km and jsut about went off clock i think so was reading about 125 km/h

when i get used to taht twin palte clutch and some new rubber on the rear tyres i will do a better vid, this time i took it easy in first, and then put my foot down about 4000 revs

just need to go find that m5...:D

anyone raced an rs4???

Ok... if you insist :D

Thats me with old exhaust, old plug wires and ignition breakup at high RPMs, going against suzuki swift with two engines and NOS. On street tyres and on street asphalt I ran 13.4sec on that run with 106mph at 1/4mile.

That was in Croatia last year, when I won the open class drag tournament :bandit
