Not really, when I get up to that speed, I pull over into the middle lane. 8-)

That's way too fast for the middle lane!!!

You should be in the 'fast' or overtaking lane as they call it in some book. The Highway Code i think it's called. Apparently it's the prequel to The DaVinci Code.

I've never read it so i can't say for sure.  ;)

I actually tried a few times to venture into the fast lane myself, but is was practically impossible due to a constant stream of madmen in Omegas fyling past at 156mph.

I was gonna say that about going in reverse.

I know they're French but i have personally witnessed a pug topping 34! The car was starting to shake a bit though.  ;D

loking at the pics again  - you had pretty much a full tank of pertol at that point - wonder how much more she had in her top end, and then againwith very little fuel.

155mph may have happened! 160 anyone>?

My old Uno Turbo would do 43 in 1st (This was checked on GPS), and reverse had the same ratio as 1st, so when you nail it, it pushed you forward, and until you got to the red line, it was hard to get your foot off the pedal.

Was "slightly" modified, would 0-60 in 6.2!
