Who saw Tiff break the world record for a 0-60 in a twin ZX12 engined tiger last night.I think he said 560 kgs,408 bhp

0-60 2.906 seconds
Then he let a rod go through the block;(

I saw it!

Tiff needed a rev limiter though, he admitted he just kept his foot down, wasn't watching the revs. On the second run one of the engines blew.

Mental idea though, two rev counters and two gear levers which you can change together or speratly

I think the speratly change probably caused the problem

Serious piece of kit though

I'll keep 5.5 secs if I don't put a rod through the block on every second attempt, thanks! Chocolate pistons better than chocolate block any day!

That Tiger is now 4WD (one engine drives the front wheels, the other drives the rear). I didn't see the program, but apparently the donuts were done by slipping the 'front' engine into neutral

carl, I thought the same. The inner front wheel was absolutely motionless, no drive whatsoever. Would have been damn fine donut if 4WD was engaged, but there's no way that the front wheels were being driven IMHO.

Actually, he did have a rev limiter, you could hear him bounce both engines off their limiters on the first run, no wonder one went pop.

Should've used Hayabusa motors instead of those crappy Kwak things j/k
