its like doing 30mph in a go cart.. feels like about 200mph

car = 175mph.....F360 sypder with top down.......on the brunters 2m straight alot slower than that on a public road but only because I have never really had a fast enough car lol



Erm quicker than that on a bike, not at brunters

130 car had no steering lol

try again soon

127 out of the works van (VW Transporter) on the Autobahn!!
103 out of the works Sprinter fully laden - again on the 'bahn.

My car at a 'secret' location - a convoy of 15 of us all at 115 - not 'that' fast but being in a convoy that size made it a lot more fun!!

Had an CBR400 just about on the limiter in top gear - no idea what speed was as I was fooking terrified and didnt dare look down!!! Must have been fast though!!

Been at 130 knots in a Gazelle (helicopter!!)...not sure what that equates to in mph.. i think the figure is slightly higher in mph?!

I was doing 165 when the cossie blew up. Cost us near on £2k to mend it. lol

145 iirc on the bmw on a private road with d and al

173mph in a Jaguar XJ13 replica.

At the time the only one in existence going down some wicked dual carriageway south of Tamworth. We were en route to MIRA proving ground to do a feature for Performance Car magazine and the owner (a friends dad) was sat next to me telling me to 'stop being a pussy'.

Here are some photos of the car at MIRA on the day:




Prior to this I was driving the 'then new' Rover 220 Tomcat while the press photographer hung out of the roof taking pictures of the XJ13.

TBH I was shitting myself. No power steering, no roof (cool) and 50's/60's technology. Driving one mans lifes work and knowing I could never ever afford to fix it if I broke it.

I'll never forget it though - the noise was AWESOME

just under 140 in my quiksilver on motorway and i shit it, let off and its suprising how quickly it slows back down

165 in my dads evo loved every min of it lol

180 in my mates Escort Gt-aiiiii
