a new cossie top speed record was set yesterday

Yesterday .... look at the dates and data on the document copies ....

and another thing:

300 rpm PER second! That's 3000 rpm per TEN seconds - that's 18,000 rpm per minute - Formula one stuff!

Or, have I missed summat ..

Since when is a top speed run done on a rolling road ????

Ish just posted them up to give an idea of the power of the engine :roll:

not quite sure about the rest of it 300rpm/sec is nothing amazing

That means that on the RR it was accelerating at a rate of 300rpm every second.
It doesn't mean it was doing 300 rev's a second. It was doing 300 Revs Per Minute every second.

IMO the3 best thing about this car is that it dont look different from a normal cossie. Man that must shock a lot of fast cars on the road.

Si is spot on

the figures/graphs are from when the car was mapped on an engine dyno.

the top speed run was done at bruntingthorpe with proper datron gps timing gear
