Hi Tony
That was the registered speed on the speedo at the time, I know that the speedo can be out a bit at that speed, but with the 19's on I think it was probably about right.
We got that speed out of 4th gear when we were mapping the car last year, I think it was coming up for 7000 in 4th @1.2 bar.
Anyway's m8, I'm not claiming to have the fastest scoob in the UK, was realy just looking for a trump card

For the 1/4m my money is still on Andy F. His car might no actually be the fastest (harvey!!) but it requires a degree of skill (even with 4wd) to get good times with 400bhp+ 
For top speed even I have andy licked

Are we agoing to start the debate again about exactly what you mean about fastest ?
e.g. 0-60, 1/4 mile, top speed, fastest around a track, fastest on a wet and bumpy road road in the dark, fastest 60 - 100mph in top gear, fastest theoretically based on rolling road results ???
Different cars will excel in different areas, depending on how they have been set-up.
e.g. for top speed, you'll need good aerodynamics, lots of power and tall gearing. For good times on track you'll need uprated suspension, good brakes, sticky tyres.
Some of the attributes required can be mutually exclusive, so unless you have a definition of "fastest", the answer won't be one car, and rather you'll have different cars being "better" than others in certain areas.

My shed is here with a 12.8 1/4mile and 107mph trap speed at the 1/4.http://www.yorkshirescoobys.co.uk/frameset.htm Red UK Wagon.
Harveys is on here, think he did 12.2 at the last Elvington and 116mph at the 1/4.http://www.tyneteesscoobies.com/Membersindex.html
There are others, but from what i heard, AndyF is pretty good over the 1/4.
Define fasest though?

i want the car with the fastest 1/4 mile and highest BHP reading in the uk it not a debate it a question?????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ??????????????????????????????????????
I think andy did an 11.69, but hes added about 80hp since then.
Bobs car is the most powerful car running at the moment I beleive, but not for long I think.
Current targets are probably 10.xx 1/4s with 500+ hp
