Took it up to 123mph gps verified on private test track though and all was going sweet, popped the oil seal on the A6 going into bedford about half a mile from the travel lodge Had a fucking fantastic weekend tho so I dont care bgout the car breakin again, gonna go to sleep soon

Few of the pics from the weekend Ive seen the jet car a few times, but never before from the stand behind it, what an experience
One of mybest memories from the show was the subtle badge on the back of the beemer with a 7.5 litre engine in it. I cant seem to find any performance specs online for the BMW 375

It was brilliant!
Interesting fact....everyone knows a supercharger takes power from the crank but these 50psi mosters take 900bhp away from the engine! Still leaves 8000bhp to play with
