That looks like a 168 mph rated tyre being used at 200mph. How safe is it to run tyres above they're rated speed like that ?

not sure

was only a quick blast though then back down to normal speed. only done it once just to see how fast it would go

haha well you say you have beaten a vanquish and they are about £165000 last time i looked! so your challenge is done!

a challenge stradale is the race version of the 360, a drivers version of the footballers 360.

No, im not on about you.
Mick (m6beg) has stated that he`s done 236mph and i hadn`t heard anything about this before so was curious as to when and where it was done. But he doesn`t seem to want to answer.

G40tee · 15th September 2008, 08:40 PM

It was a test on a test track

. We were meaning to hit 250 but it never happened. The Aero on the car just slowed it up in the end. We reached 8750 rpm with the ratios. The car was geared for 270+ but was fighting a loosing battle. IE slowing its self down.
Also i have hit 227 in the car before on GPS the day before.

It was a good and scary test. Very Scary.
