Daveyboy20 Posted October 25, 2006 Report Posted October 25, 2006 Got an indicated 130mph out of my 2.1 capri but dont know what it really was, the rear offside arch broke off and twatted up on the side window!! had to go onto the hardshoulder (of the private airfield) and bolt it back on before slapping duck tape all over it!! got 90mph out of the starlet but it really didnt like it, my mate overtook me in his 200sx and buggered off only to settle to normal pace so i spent the next 5 minutes with my foot to the floor and shot past him unexpectedly, he said he'd never heard such mechanical noise in all his life!!
