Hey all just a bit bored and just wondering how fast you have been in your car or your m8s car.
The fastest I’ve been in my EB is about 188 clicks and in my m8s xr8 Ute was about 200 but I don’t think he had his foot down lol

230km/h in my old XF
200km/h in the EF
I had a video of me doing 5-220 in an F6, can't find it now though

I had one wheel spinning at 360km/h once, does that count?

I got the needle on the EA past 200 at Calder, but that would have been at least 10% off due to the diff.
As smooth as a hurricane at a timberyard.

had the EB out past the clockd to 199 (digital dash) in 5th at 5500 on the nitrous racin an XR6T
my XT with a 302 clocked next to a type-r integra, im assuming 180kph, as my dash onli went to 120mph an i think integras have limiters
an then with the 351 took it to 220 next to a VX clubby
70k on a 12speed racer cumn down hallam rd (clockd by the cops in a 60zone)
an me and a mate had a 260kmh dash clockd in a HSV enhanced VN Clubsport (im not guna go into this story as i feel it will jus be throwin fuel on my alredy brightly burning fire)
altho i will say...we managed to go from Punt Rd in the City to Pound Rd in Hampton park (1 exit past princes hwy on the M20) in 7minz

Fark, nice effort, on a mountain bike too!
I've done 50 downhill on a racer, mountain bikes are heaps slower and less stable.
No legs out of bed at that rpm?
/lame jokes

70k on a 12speed racer cumn down hallam rd (clockd by the cops in a 60zone)

When my ED got to 180'ks it cut off, I shat myself thinking what have I done to my car? It was'nt till later I was told it does that in the auto's! (phew)
I'm guessing they are called limiter's? If so are they in the engine or computer?
Are they in all e-series autos or manuals too?
(should be in NOOB but since we are on the topic)
