Thought some may enjoy seeing what ziggy12345 has been doing lately. It's not my cup of tea but it's fairly amazing regardless...

If anybody is interested I'll be running the car again on November 15th (depending on the weather). The aim is to verify the speed with a number of runs and aim for 200mph.

Cheers

The high view and length of the car (5ft) makes the speed look slow. Here is another view of the 117mph run at ground level.

Compare this to the view from the top. The 117 is the first run of the 3 from the top view

Cheers
