1.4sr indicated 136mph with speedo over reading by 5mph at 70mph (10% over read is normal)

All your cars sound well slow (accept RoRn200).

I got 152mph out of my 1.2 spin in reverse goin off road.

Along with my many modifications, I recon that the one giving the most power is the upside-down mounted exhaust manifold giving me 4 lovely exhausts petruding from my bonnet (each a big bore 0.5).

Anyone up 4 a race!!!

how standard was the 1.4 sr that did 136mph? l haven't had my 1.4 long but l've only had 107 out of it, but l had 120 out of my 1.3sr which seemed quicker and used lots less fuel do l have a carburettor prob?

Nothing at all to do with this post, but i thought it was funny anway. When i had my Uno Turbo, me and a couple of mates were in a multi story car park and decided to see if my turbo would come on in reverse. I botted it in reverse and slammed the brakes on just before flying of the edge! IT DID!! :D & it was the loudest dump valve noise i have EVER heard! :)
