Ignacio,
I'd love to see you and show you the changes in Rufus. There is the big "Toys for Tots" car show on Dec 4th in Agoura... can you make it down here a day or so early? Email me: ca993twin@yahoo.com so we don't get so off topic on this thread.

Ran at Bruntingthorpe runway yesterday in temperatures of -3C (26F) and hit indicated 208mph over 1.5 miles which was an actual 202mph on both GPS and Timing Beams. Managed 5 runs at 200mph or better. Was overjoyed to finally break the true 200mph barrier in such a short distance (car was still accelerating strongly).

A tried a weak stab at 200 yesterday...
God I long for Bruntingthorpe, I had to be satisfied with this yesterday (1 handed, so I couldtake picture). How does the saying go, you have very few friends at 200 MPH !!

Hey Woody nice stuff.
I know how you feel, this was the NA car and I can assure you it took more than 1.5 miles to achieve this speed and I don't think there was much left.
You will have to come north and I will take you to open roads where you can really let her rip and you will see what you can really achieve with your new car.

Here's a couple of data-traces from my GPS data-logger.....
I've been in and examined the data, which it holds to the 1/100th of a second and from the graphs and the data you can see that at 200mph it was still gaining a staggering 1.4 mph every second
It's a real testement to the size and reliability of Ruf horses.

Anyone got specs on the Ruf RT12? 0-200km/h is reported sub 10s. But I have a slight doubt.

Can we determine 100-200kph times and 60-130mph times from these graphs ?
My AX22 should arrive this week - I am keen to compare

The software will calculate the times. On that run you can see that as I am cornering I don't get fully on the gas until about 80mph, so I've extracted the data from a previous date.
100-200kph - 7.13s
60-130mph - 8.38secs
Oh and 200kph-300kph was 17.63s
I'm happy to email my data to other AX22 owners.
