When I spoke to pat around this time last week, having our weekly / monthly curry he was stating what I posted..

What I should have said is there is a car still at colins, the silver car (sti2 iirc) is getting returned to std and sold, as he now has a fully caged type-r which makes more sense to use as the track car

His dilemma was brakes, as he didnt want to have to use his 18's (the only thing they will fit in) but John Felstead has suggested a tyre size to him that should work.

Anyway Im sure he will comment if he see's the thread..

For what it's worth, CONGRATULATIONS ANDY F

200mph is pretty special
200mph in a scoob is fantastic
200mph in a scoob that also handles is unbelieveable

BTW, from the looks of your data, it seems the cheapest way to crack 220 is a couple of hundred tonnes of tarmac and an extension to the track!!!!!!!

Just to bring this back up, the German Auto-bild Mag has just done a report showing europes quickest road going 1/4 mile car, Mitsubishi Evo IX from Norris Designs.

Top speed: 215mph
1/4 mile: 9.7 sec.

According to other sorces this is the worlds quickest road going Impreza (the Icebreaker)

Don't think he has actually done 215mph yet though, think it is still a 'in theory' speed

Bit like the Team Ice cars Quote "Should top 200mph"

So if I reckon my car "Should top 250mph" does that make it the fastest again

You want to get yourself to a shootout day and give that rocket ronnie a rocket up the backside of that skyline of his as no-one seems to be able to beat him at the mo

Well done Andy, it must be nice to stick two fingers up to all the doubters and people who slate Subaru's.

Once again well done mate, you've earnt yourself a beer tonight

Are you sure? Rocket Ronnie wasn't anywhere to be seen last year, and all his old records have now been broken. Keith Cowie and a certain Mr Forrest have all gone quicker, aswell as a few others.
Ronnie never got into the 9's, and Abbey Motorsports new hero is Tim Webster, and although he has done a 9.9 he is still somewhat off the pace of the top 3 or 4 cars in the UK.
