With power like that it should be down in the low 12's/high 11's and get a terminal of 125+mph

well , the only chance of getting it to a drag strip is if i ship the car down to UK  :wink: we have no drag strips here.

however , a video is planned in around 2 weeks in a landing strip.
so you will see the car in action against a stage 2+ K03 , a stage 2+ K04 , a strong stage 3 with methanol injection and some other cars like 370z and maybe an APR tuned 996 turbo.
that should give a good estimation of what this car is capable of.

i am also waiting to install my supercopa body kit which will allow me to run better wheels and tires.

also with the current wheels , i am loosing around 10psi of air pressure every time i launch the car in lower gears due to the fact that the wheel spins inside the tire :)

That is some power coming through the front wheels to make it do that

My Grandad used to work for Rolls Royce/Bentley in the 80's.

Whether is bullsh*t or not he reckons that the Mulsanne Turbo had to be restricted because the tyres would spin off the wheel!

Mental.

Along the same lines they were a bit ballooney on the Mulsanne!
