Dunno Scotty - never been over the speed limit in my life... (but good memory on the specs, you're spot on with gearing and tyre sizes. Jeez, don't you ever forget anything?!?)

I'm over at Mum and Dad's house, and I've just had a look at the Cobra - sitting out in the BBQ area under a cover. What a shame it's not getting more use! Having said that, the money's in the mechanicals, so we'll see if the motor can't find it's way into an RCR40 with a couple of turbos. And so begins the plotting and scheming...!

I reckon my Cobra would crack into the 13's. I think that's more than fast enough considering my missus is driving it.

I've got no doubt that Ozvenom will be able to achieve those figures, he is a man without limits and balls to match.

Craig, I've got an RCR40 coming with your name on it.

I'll let you know when the demo RCR40 is here in Brissy. Would be a good excuse to catch up. I expect it wouldn't be hard to get Don to pop on over with you as well.

Cool

My car driven by an unbiased third party (Samuel Hubinette "The Crazy
Swede." ) for a video series "Head2Head" turned 12:02. It was up against a Spyker which didnt fare so well. It will be aired toward the end of April. I am looking forward to it.

Have never seen Head 2 Head but 'your' episode looks pretty interesting

Do you know of anywhere on the 'net we can see it?
