Whats the fastest car u have been in???

Post by Sepher »

I could say the sports car my dad used to have. It was a Cobra 427. unique autocraft... it had twin carb 4.5 L V8 rover engine in with I believe a cosworth gearbox. It had 300bhp in it, and we did 120mph in it! Loved that car!

(This is not a thread for people to say i done 120mph in my 1.4, a 1.4 is not a powerful car!!!)

Mine would have to be when i was in the States I went out in a NASCAR round a track. The speed at which it was going round corners meant my crash helmet had to be secured with harnasses!

On the road in the UK, I\'ve been in a couple of quick Porsche\'s, a fast bike, but a car that always sticks out was my mates Golf GTi G60, a 235bhp 1.8 supercharged engine - that was mad!


not a lot im afraid, i did sit in a escort cossie rally car when i was about 6 though does that count.
