IP3 or SM question
Jul 30th, 2012 at 3:11pm
 
Do any of you front running IP3 or Spec Miata racers know what your top speed is at the end of the straights at Mission?

Thanks

Not exactly front running, but if you take a look at any one of my videos I'm doing around 170km/h indicated just before the braking zone.  Slightly slower than Curt's 200 km/h.

If I remember right, they had some police doing a speed trap at the end of the straight at the first CCGP weekend in 2008.  The track was damp and they said 160km/h for my CRX.

A couple of years ago one of the drivers at a Proformance Driver's Club told me he hit 220 km on the straight, he was driving a Porsche twin turbo (600hp?)!
Similar power/weight ratio as Curt I guess Wink!!
