Whats the fastest speed you driven at, and in what car?

[pimento]

WOW ! You must have VERY good eyesight to be able to see that far forward
Only jesting ... but seriously trying that in a '69 Holden ? brave man

Pssst, Matra.. I think he might be a girl... I've heard a few of them have made their way onto the internets lately.

MY PROFOUND APOLOGIUES FranFran

No excuse, but could try to use the fact that the kiddies around here usually scare women away from the forum within a few days

A good Aussie sheila ?? should have guessed you could cope !!!

[franfran]

Well, I'm glad that one's straightened out...........

The fastest I have ever felt I was going turned out to only be 130 mph in an Ariel Atom on a wet track at Goodwood. Strong winds, little to no grip, and no run off areas make for an exciting day.

About 105mph in my 2001 Honda Accord 2.0 VTEC on a dry day.

^^ Please tell me that was at Knockhill and not on any roads I'm likely to be travelling on

Neither. It was on an A road in South Lanarkshire

Hehe, sounds like a fun day though. Still have the F40?

Yes, still have both the F40 and F50.

As an Airdrie man I know them well.
I ride the bike down those roads, so please keep excess speed to the track -- especially in a rice-rocket with no rocket

I'm having entertaining thoughts picturing all the possible "what-if" scenarios here .

[Matra et Alpine]

hmmmm MOTOR-bike .... I leave the fit and trendy stuff for others.
If it don't smell of Castrol-R then it's not worth riding

Haha. Hardly a rice rocket! It was actually my Gran's old car. However it is still much quicker than any "boyracer" car like Corsas, Fiestas etc. I really like it since its much different compared with what most of my friends drive.

^^^ Not a hard comparison, but PUHLEASE, find out how fast it is and how good you are by going to Knockhill, Forrestburn, Crail or Kaimes.

Safer ( you and more importantly others ) and you might find you get the competitive "bug"

Actually I'm going to Knockhill later this year to get some track tuition. One of my main Christmas presents. I haven't quite decided which course to opt for though but I'll probably take the SEAT Leon Cupra 20 Laps. I'm really looking forward to it especially since I go to Knockhill for the GTs and Touring Cars each year.

Like yourself, I prefer safe, fast driving and I'm no boyracer! I have even had a subscription for EVO magazine for several years, which I'm quite sure not many other almost 18 year olds have.
