That's what I found in mine. It was very wet so I got some wheelspin around 3k and then it tramped on to the limiter.tim wrote: Sun Nov 10, 2019 7:49 pm I tried it in the M140i - will drop to 2nd at exactly 1,000rpm so had to go a knats above. Goes like stink to about 80 ish before hitting the limiter. Will try mit video when I get a chance.

Probably cheating a bit using 3rd in an 8 speed box! But we don't make the rulez...
You settle up, I'll go get the Jag.

This entire thread just proves that people take things I post on this forum waaaaay too seriously.
I wonder what else I could get people to do?

0-200 mph, for every mph below 200 you get a 1 second penalty added.NotoriousREV wrote: Sun Nov 10, 2019 7:56 pmThis entire thread just proves that people take things I post on this forum waaaaay too seriously.

How about not having a sig at all?

Here's an identically specced car doing something inadvisable on a road.
Edit: Timed that at around 18secs.

That guy needs some washer fluid. 
Re: Rev’s 1KRPM to the limiter in 3rd Fred
Notice how I was clever enough to actually leave a bit on the end so you could that I did in fact hit the limiter.
I reckon everyone else runs are fake, and thus null and void.
But yes, I do need some schooshy-fluid in the go go machine.

Very cleverly adding lightness is how I'd frame it.
Thought a Lotus guy would get that

Null and void. Clearly rolled through idle rather than holding it there and flooring it.

Might be a bit faster if you release the handbrake old bean.

That's the stability control warning, because it's turned off, you silly boy.Mito Man wrote: Sun Nov 10, 2019 11:30 pm Might be a bit faster if you release the handbrake old bean.
