Nope - definitely a fake.

No film is fast enough to catch the fuel needle any better than a blur at that speed...

Love it!

So do you have many races Iwan, or is that just a normal drive? what other sorts of cars are up around that speed?

My automatic response to this was

"OH!!! %$#%$ OFF!!!"

May you die of some despicable disease and all your children be ugly and mute.

Please don\'t taunt me ever again with this kinda stuff. Especially when I am still stuck riding my bicycle.

And especially not on a day when I fell off the thing. Not caused by a car either, not directly anyway.

I wonder if I can convince the Le Mans convoy to go via Germany?

On a really sad note, if the engine is going that fast/hard the engine will be going bang very soon.

The oil pressure is to low.

Hi Glenn,
The pic was made yestarday on A94 near Munich going home. The road was free to go this speed. It was not a race, just "normal" driving home. They are not many cars able to go this speed, but they are some. Like new Porsche 911 or delimited BMW M5.
The car is definitely able to go faster, they is enogh power for this, but you touch REV-limiter @ 285 -290km/h. I need another rated dif, like 3,9:1

@ FISH.
You know, that the oil pressure sensor stuck on most R-7, even on my car to. The pressure is @ about 8 goiung this speed.

@ Iaint,
If you go via Germany to France, you should drive @ night. They is to much traffic on Germans roads, and you are able to go this speed on few Autobahns and at night only.
