Fastest recorded speed?

[Ryan]

That's why I included the word "theoretically"

Heh, my tyres are only rated for 240km/h so I'd probably end up smearing myself and my car all over the surrounds...

[bradc]

coming down from the bombay hills to ramarama, you've got a 6-8% slope to start off with, then 5km of perfectly straight road from there

The 850CSi does 300kmh btw

[Subaru ETA]

is that from experience brad?

[bradc]

haha not yet.

imagine that cop!

[DefeXion]

I was gonna mention that place. It's really empty early in the morning and has been tempting

You know Brad .......... I'm not too sure that's a long enough drag to reach the VR4's 150 mph let alone the 'Beast's' 186 mph (300kph)

[bradc]

I reckon it would be fine

[Ryan]

Do let us know how you get on Brad (include pics!)

[Goku]

Wigram wouldn't allow the use of the air field for that kind of event, they said no after the last time there was one out there

There are a few long straights down here that you can get up to just a hair over 240kmh

[jpnvr4]

well bone stock I did about 170kph.... and somewhere after 140 ... the car just seems 2 drag .. I have a stock spoiler 4 crying out loud.. and I still get all that drag ... (thinking out loud)..... what do I need 4 moe power apart from an ecu...?

Isnt that where the Top Secret GTR done 300km/h in the rain while he was here a couple years ago?
I'm always tempted to go off the clock there every time I drive up to Auckland! I saw 3 crashes all on that same stretch at the same time last time though, how people manage to crash there I dont know.

I was on my way to auckland from whangas in my cousins legacy and there was a really long big hill at one point, so going up it with four of us in the car it still managed 240ish, I was impressed.

[d i c k i e s]

what kinda leagcy? ol skool or new?

[djb160]

Couple of generations old, three would be my guess. Yep 3rd gen. Had some mods not sure of all of them

[d i c k i e s]

the older models seem to go harder than the new ones!

[Munta]

the stock speed limiter in our cars i find is very easy to hit... that maybe sad but ive hit a few times... only need a about 2-3km of straight road if already cruising at 100kph... but then even from standstill i still find it easy.. now to just find the wire in the back of the ecu and give it the cut

[bradc]

At Pukekohe on the weekend I was hitting 225kmh every lap, I think the back straight is only about 1.2km long and I was coming onto it at about 80kmh or so.

[d i c k i e s]

225kmh.. is pretty good. is that top speed for your car brad, or was there not enough road!

[SFC]

no you can not.....unless you can find the longest god damn straight in nz!!! and when you do find it, tell me where it is

You guys must have an equivalent to Pendine Sands right?

Just make sure your undersealing is up to spec first.

[Wodjno]

{You guys must have an equivalent to Pendine Sands right? }

A long stretch of sand once used for high speed runs, that's now off limits and is Peppered with Bombs!

I think you would need more than a decent underseal for protection
