355! I have reached 353, and you guys are in no way worse at this than I am, and I think 355 is possible, allthough it will be very hard to get there. But you should at least top my speed! Cause if you don´t, I´ll really have to find someone with a digicam-to-loan. And that ain´t easy around here...
 
Ok. I think that your with the R8, so we have a challange on our hands.
First to 360 wins it :dopey: :dopey:

To D.E.
Phew on your speed, Very close indeed
:dopey: :dopey: prob more in the region of 350.92:dopey:

And I forgot in my previous posts about the pic comment from D.E.
Its not hard to get a decent pic. Save Replay.....Replay theatre......select button on 350mph......scroll through camera shots to get one dead on side.........focus on front wheel with square button.....EV up to +0.8......everything else max......little red (yellow).......take picture....transfer with memory stick, or capture with card, or fone cam......Host!!!!!! Lovely little sequence for ya'all there. 👍 👍
Keep up the good work though.
gonna get some blasting now :sly: :sly:

Just got a 350.99:scared: :ouch: Not quite the 351 I was looking for. Just using downforce at the mo. Gotta get that right:sly: :sly: :drool:

'Nother edit: Got 351.10. Yay!!

I'm working on it! Not sure about 360 though, Smuttney!

Dammit, let me catch you up first Smuttney :p I can probably lose three clicks from downforce though, so I'm onto you! About the pictures, my EV is usually only +0.5, any higher and it's too bright even on the computer, frame rate maximum of course, but that's all!

Opendriver, that went because I noticed that it was labelled 'Unconfirmed'...
Not sure what it was doing there in the first place if that was the case.

EDIT - Sorry Smuttney, but I've snatched it away from you with a speed of 351.17mph in the Audi R8. The picture below isn't meant to be proof of any sort, it's taken at 351mph purely because it looks cool :)

Ok. No worries, I'll catch you tonight:scared: :scared:
Hell of a speed for 353 Team 666.

I'm actually going the other way with my downforce. Started at bottom and keep going faster the more I put on. But I gotta keep it balanced:crazy: :crazy:

Nice pic as well D.E. That well cool innit!! :sly:

353 seems doable... I'm not going to disclose the breakthough I had this morning yet, but my downforce is odd as well. Let me know if you catch me (and I bet you will :p )

I love that picture, it's my desktop background now :D

I recently clocked 311.21 mph (500.85kmh) in the Nissan R92 with real long gears and a little nos and thought i did alright till i found this site and started reading these threads Awesome stuff ah well back to the chalk board i go

Yeh that picture is brialliant! Shame its not got a bit more of the car in the photo. But still a v.good shot!
Cheers. I didn't want too much of the car in the shot, in fact it's turned out exactly how I wanted - a side profile of the car hurtling towards you at 350mph, and a mass of sparks in the background. You can also see where the car's been, as in the track and the tunnel, and I wanted that. I love the way the yellow line is blurred and shaking far out, but gets clearer closer to the camera.
In fact, I can't put into words how cool I think it is :)

DE
 
I know it's not sufficient proof seeing as it's over 350mph, so this speed still won't go on the leaderboard, but just so you know Smuttney - here's my current R8 speed (351.17mph)



Plenty left in her yet :)

DE
 
Yeah, I've got the equipment as most of you know, but I don't see the need to put up a video yet because that speed will probably be pushed higher soon :)

DE
 
I'll be going for gold tonight with the R8. Not gonna post up speed tonight though. Just really going to try hard ALL night. (apart from when Smallville's on:dopey: )
👍 👍
 
Papa_Smurf
any body try the Jaguar or Bently yet??
Yes, the benley has ben tried and I have the fastest confirmed sped @ 335.60
I think the jag cant take nos and is a 5 speed that has around 1000hp
So yeah, I dont think that It can be done, but then again, I thought the chaparals couldnt do it....
 
The Jaguar XJR-9 is perfectly capable.. You really shouldn't prejudice over gears, look at the Chaparral and the Nissan R-series!

DE
 
That reminds me, where's your attempts at a 300mph Evo? I'm constantly at it with my GT-Rs, but you've not had a go with an Evo! It'll prove forevermore that GT-Rs are better :p

DE
 
In other words Ghost, it's not even close? :p Keep trying!

Welcome back tomtig 👍

Opendriver, nice to see there is a couple of cars I'm actually faster than you with :D

Updating Leaderboard.

EDIT - Or not... The host is playing up, so I'll try again later today.
crimson_menace reached a speed of 300.08mph in the Jaguar XJ220 Race Car.
