[Mitchy]

What cars that 160mph in???

 

[Simon172]

mine (mk.1 172) , chasing a CTR (that was also parked in the same car park )

 

[Mitchy]

I thought the clio speedo dial only went up to the 160mph mark, yours is showing i think 170.

Am i reading this properly, have you had 160mph in a 2.0l clio?? I know theres proof right in front of me, but that seems way way fast.

Am surprised the gearbox let you do that, i thought at max the clio would do 150, Am very surprised.

 

[MAC30L]

144mph in the Cup (shift light on), Indicated 153mph in old mans Integra Type R (8800rpm in 5th!) and about 74mph in my Fire Engine!!

He he, when you do the self diagnostic for the clios dials all the dials move about to calibrate themselves - so should u take a picture of the spedo when its at 160mph... the cars actually standing still

 

[..D..]

only 140 in the 172 Mk2, was still pulling easily but an escort ruined it for me and decided to move into my lane.

 

[edde]

Since the clio gets 20.1mph forever 1000 rpm. And the redline is at 7200 then maz speed is 144.7mph and thats on the limiter.

EDD

 

[Red16]

just maxed out my willy engined valver this morning, mailto:6800rpm@136mph">6800rpm@136mph, think the r19 16v box i have has a shorter final drive than the williams from the figures some of you lot have been getting in the past!

 

[paddymph]

144 in my 172.

[ChavyBoy]

140 in my old 172 mk2

140 in my Valver

An indicated 175 on my Kawasaki ZX6R



All done on my own private airfield..

 

[Nick Read]

140 mph on the clock in Germany on the Cliosport tour this year. Because of my 17" wheels and longer gearbox, it actually equates to a genuine (confirmed by GPS) speed of 145mph. ANyone who got the tour video on CD has got footage of it with Jas shooting the video from the passenger seat. LOL thats the first time Ive ever had a passenger asleep while we were cruising at 130 for mile after mile!

 

[visceral]

142 indicated.

 

[Tiger]

hope no officials are reading this!!! anyway 135 in my willy 2 could have pushed a bit more i think

 

[Nick Read]

Oh 150+ in a mates 300ZX about 10 years ago, 4 up. Scary from the back seat!

 

[ghostrider]

that is never a picture of a 2.0l clio. I am quite sure that will be a V6

145mph in my old XR2 (down a very very big hill)

145mph in my old Fiesta RS Turbo (racing a MK2 turbo golf)
