I thought I'd have a bit of fun here in UK going to a straightliners event at elvington àirfield for a high speed 1.0 and 1.25 mile run.
Although the distance available is not near long enough to get a maximum speed.
my launch wasn't particularly good and I managed a 135.2mph standing mile and 141.4mph standing mile and a quarter.
My car speedometer although spot on accurate at 60mph undereads about 10mph at high speed.
I ran in Germany on the autobahn in 2023 at 145.1mph gps recorded, but lifted prematurely because the front end went scarily light.
So... I fitted a front splitter and the results were fantastic and the car felt solid at higher speeds.
