Well done Andy. Excellent result. :thumb:
See you at JapShow. |
Was very entertaining being the co-pilot. As david says, the brakes didn't inspire massive confidence, however, just lifting off at that speed in a lightweight car means you slow down pretty quickly. Perhaps we could have slowed down quickly enough to make the first turn off, but it felt much safer using a little more of the runway to slow down.
Due the old age of the driver, and his partial sightedness, we braked too early on the first run, so the second run he kept it nailed. Signal to brake was me waving frantically after Andy made sure we went well through the timing lights at full throttle. paul |
Incredible result there Andy. You've made me very very jealous!
|
awsome time prob very gutting thou .6mph lol sure you will find 200 very soon is this by any chance the fastest 4x4 car in the country ie top speed for a perminant 4x4 car not like the gtr's
|
Superb!! wish I had been there to watch!!

Congrats Andy
The Scoobs will soon join the 200+club. Takes a fast car to reach that speed in 1.5miles. Norris Designs EVO has cracked 200 at Brunters last year. Catching my Cossie bit by bit (206.1mph) . Rod |

slipery shaped lambo with 500 + bhp is only just as quick. ( sitting here gob smacked ) good on ya fella This in my mind makes anything that can exceed 180mph at Brunters an amazingly fast piece of kit, to get near enough 200mph is off the scale. Incidentally, the Fensport Corrolla did 199.x two up and ditching the passenger allowed it to hit 200.3mph, so blame your passenger ;). |
*evil grin*

wow thats amazing. was the norris evo 9 competing?

Well done Andy :thumb:
I wish I wish :lol: |

paul[/QUOTE] LOL. I'm sure the JUN STi3 in New Zealand didn't quite make 199mph, think it was the low 190's:rolleyes: |
To my knowledge, Andy's car is now the fastest recorded Subaru in the World 199.4mph, followed by Mark Aigin at 193.4mph.
Top day, and getting brake fade on the AP 6 Pots was entertaining for me :D. How the feck you slowed down enough with the 2 pots i dont know. I told you, you should have chucked Paul out :D |
:eek2: Awesome
|
NICE ONE MATE WHY DONT YOU LET THE HANDBRAKE OFF NEXT TIME
|

paul Next run I was taken aback to find Pauls hand waving in front of my face and a loud STAAAAAAWWWWWWP wailed into the cabin :D closely followed by NOOOOOOOOO don't try to turn :eek: I think we were still doing circa 120mph at the proposed turnoff ! Andy |
Found the link...missed the right post on 22b the first time :o
Here it is for others to enjoy :) http://www.themorgans2005.plus.com/files/video/ |
Impressive
All of you :cool: |
Those vids are really impressive :D
Do either of those cars run with an FMIC?? I was always told that classic scoops stopped working over 100mph :eek: |
Absoluetly outstanding :), I'm beaming away here, Andy you legend, i'm sure you'll find the other 0.6 mph somewhere, have you looked under the seat? lol
Regards Iain |
