Flat out in a 16v

[Daz...]

It's not all bad, I'm gonna get it mint before I put it back on the road.
How long do you think the ban will be?

[Blue MK2]

about 12 months and a few points maybe. sorry didnt want to alarm you but it depends if you where doing 110 on a motor way or 110 in a 30 zone?

[Daz...]

I was on a dual carriage way. I'm not expecting it to be short...

What was the speed limit?

[Daz...]

it's 70, i'd only had the car 2 days aswell! I was just trying it out..

I did get about 136mph out of my valver a few years back. Its just not worth it anymore as the PIGS are everywhere.
Its ok to drive at 2 foot away from the car infront when doing 70mph. But if you break the speed limit then you will get hammered.

Bastads. What tends to happen to me is I drive all slow and normal then think lets have a bit of speed, get round the next corner and ello babylon (old bill). Either that or I realise I am being followed.

My golf gti 16v mark 2 was unbeatable, I beat Astra 16v's, Escorts rs turbo, etc etc. Dunno if the previous owner modified the engine but it was like sh!t of a shovel.

The valver sure is a top motor

I had 130 out of my 8v and still had more to go, but the limiter had other plans

130 out of an 8v
What engine was it and what mods?

[Dizzie]

'87 k-jet
no one know what's been done to it but it's the fastest 8v most people have driven. there's a piper cams sticker on the slam panel. but no idea what cam is actually in there. it revs off the clock and really picks up at 4500 and powers all the way to 6000 which is strange for a 8v.

standard exhaust and air filter with power roar pipe, but I did 130 before fitting that. makes no diff, just looks nicer.
