top speed at trax

[Iain C]

To those who went round silverstone on sunday.
Wot was your top speed?
I got 110 but chickened out due 2 massive brake fade!

I wasnt really looking too much to be honest, I was paying more attention to the CTR in front who wasnt braking as late as me!! I saw 120 a few times though.

I was amazed my brakes didnt fade at all, unlike in Scotland with the 172!

i was amazed... the cup went really well but for a car with track asperations (?) After lap 2 (2easy laps at that cos it was my first track session) the brakes where shocking!

In Scotland my 172 had the pedal in the carpet after a few massive stops.

Once off track they were very spongy at the weekend.

About 90, Ive got a nice flat spot there

I hit the rev limiter in 4th down the longest straight so that would be bout 115 I think.I need new front pads now...........

thats one thing i noticed about my 182 at bedford, had no brake fade whatsoever, was well impressed.

I definatly say the near side of 120 a couple of times down the back straight - chicked out on most of the corners due to understeer and brake fade

So pleased with my car - Still!!!!

Saw 120 as I passed a Galant on the back straight. Think I got the best 0-60 time aswell - 6.35s
