I have no idea what times we were doing mate. Didn't martin say he'd done a 56s in the nana after only an hour or so?

Tiff could probably beat 55.5 for the RX8 in a willy I'd have thought. Gives us a target time next time round!

Or there's the 54.56 to beat of the 182. :twisted:

'Cos they're not blessed with much upstairs. Or maybe it would have been too short and easy a story: buy car, mod car, hit 200+ no problem first time around, sell car. :P

The mission was basically to buy and modify a car to supercar territory (200mph being the target) for around £40k.

The Lotus was a bad car to start with IMO.

But Rod's car (the sierra) and yes i will stick up for him as he is a mate,
£43k divided by 6 years = £7.16k a year,

Not bad to say the car is an everyday driver too, has done around 10 200mph runs, still has standard seats and trim etc and drives itself to and from events/shootouts, no trailer jobs and no excuses.

The car was all over the show but did you see the surface, wet, not the best surface for such speeds IMO :roll:
That bloke in the cardy (Sheady) has got balls of steel,
Throw £43k including the purchase price of your clio's and see how fast that can get you :wink:
