Gazboy Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 Just wondering, who has the fastest accelerating car (on normal road tyres) and highest top speed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve W2 Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 Depends if you mean fastest registered person on this site, or person with the fastest Supra living in the UK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazboy Posted April 8, 2005 Author Share Posted April 8, 2005 I think it's easier just to keep to registered members- anyone could say "Joe Bloke has a 1400bhp Supra that does 300mph...." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONKEYmark Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 Check out the excellent MonkeyMark link! www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=29073 thanks my fastest on street tyres is 12.533 on drag radials is 11.962 what is fastest car? some may be quicker around corners than a drag car. some cars better at top end. uk specs seem to get good top speeds. there is only 1 car and its CRD supra fastest 1/4 9.95 and 201mph in 1.25 miles is amazing accelleration. go look see how long it takes some of these supercars take to get to 200mph bet you looking at 3 miles + Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dude Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 Fiver says the car I'm working on at the moment is faster than Dudes 0-100 My best 0-112 was 7.something secs but i can knock at least a second off that with a decent 60 ft time !!!!

dude Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 you can go back to the old argument from last year , the fastest car is the one who wins on the day , in that case i had the fastest car because i beat Dee at TOTB3 in a heads up race , so you could say IF id raced him when he ran a 9.9 then MAYBE id have run a 9.8 , conditions vary and so does the way they effect the car making power , if you go do a test and tune in April on a prepped track the car WILL run faster than in the middle of August , a drag race is just that a race to the end , first one there wins , you could run a 10 sec 1/4 and be beaten by an 11 sec 1/4 if you sit on the line too long and the other guy doesnt !!!! At the end off the day all the cars mentioned are fast and well put together and Dee from CRD is the ONLY one to have recorded a 9 sec run , hopefully he can back it up this year with another few , as for most powerfull then it would have to be Leon as he has recorded the highest terminal speed allthough last week at the Pod he was back in the mid 11's at 135 ish !!! 200 Top speeds on the other hand should be relatively easy , i hit 187 just over 1/2 way down brunters and found a speed limiter i didnt know was there Interesting though that the CRD car is claimed at 1200 hp mine is roughly 1/2 that Dude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
