Default Gt4 - Blitz That One Guys

Hey,

This is a competition to test the top speed - settings you have on your car. You can any street production car, with any mods you want. See what top speed you can get out of your machine then post it up. Photo evidence must be supplied. If i am beaten i will happily hand over the title of !!!SPEED DEMON!!!

I took out a top speed of:

Doug
325.28Km/h.
F6 Typhoon.

haha.

Be careful now, German cars are fast.

My Stock Merc McLaran SLR pulls about 335km/h

Just been fiddling round with my 350Z LM racecar to get 394km/h. 400 is so close :(

Bugger,

Damn german cars, I just got the GT and it pulled a nifty- 325.32Km/h. The damn thing is 100 horses off the F6. I think i will make her go after a few more races.

P.S. F6 didn't even red line, more improvements to come. A GT4 thread would be great, this could be a game worth while.

We should keep this to road cars as
a. I don't have any group A LM cars.
b. LM cars rule in this area.
c. Toyota GT1 vs Bentley Speed 8 vs Nissan R390 gets boring.

343.67 km/h for stock Merc SLR McLaran
357.62 km/h for warm BMW M3 CSL
361.86Km/h for drugged up Mitsubishi Evo8 GSR MR

I think its more the fact that takes effort.

I don't see any issue in making a claim, just so long as you can provide evidence when requested.

I gave it a go...


That's the best time I got, although I only tried a few cars, there are a few others I didn't try...


There are the cars I tried that got over 400km/h. Sorry the pic isn't the clearest, here is what it says:
Quote:
Ford GT '05 - 440.99km/h
Mercedes SL 65 AMG (R230) '04 - 431.85km/h
BMW M5 '05 - 419.27km/h
BUICK Special '62 - 414.58km/h
TVR Cerbera Speed 12 '00 - 400.46km/h
If anyone beats that speed, I'll have another go and see if I can beat it.

BTW, I think all of those cars are regular production cars, with the possible exception of the buick.

462.23km/h in the Saleen S7

I think I can get it faster, but that'll do for now, seeing as so far I seem to be winning (until anyone else posts proof of their claimed top speeds that exceed mine)
