Beer Baron Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 all I can say is he must have had some serious intent if he really was in a non turbo skyline. it would take some pretty long road to wind a GTS up to a 'real' (ie not speedo indicated) 208kmh. the speedo would be reading about 230-250 at that speed (if not still 180kph speedo). he will now be enjoying ye olde public transport, and the lifto-bludgo for many moons to come.

I'd assume he did it on the northbound side, since it runs downhill. At which point, if he started at 110km/hr or so before hitting this section......200km/hr would be easy to achieve.

No one seems to care what happens in uber-exotics actually the last guy caught speeding in a bentley is in jail. or perhaps it was a bugatti? either way I believe that counts as 'uber-exotic'...

scathing Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 Yeah, the guy who got busted doing ludicrous speed in his Bentley is meant to be doing time. He's appealing, so we'll see how it goes.
