Default Standing mile in a R turbo...video

We werer at Bruntinthorpe proving ground and were able to see what the car could do. So from a start we hit 190mph over one mile. 0-180mph in 26.4 seconds. Also this was in the rain as well

Well here is the video, hope you guys enjoy...its just of the speedo, which should give a really good impression of acceleration

all the best

Thanks! The link worked just fine for me, and I'm sitting in my daughter's pediatrician's office hooked to the net with a Sprint PCS Vision radio card.

That's pretty darn good in the rain!! I got a little dizzy being that the driver was on the other side of the car..

Cheers
