[quote=MADRod]Dont think the rebuild of my car has been shown on this forum so here goes.
After a long period of Development my RS is being prepared for an attempt on its own RS Cosworth Topspeed record.

Dynoed at 838bhp/666ft-lb it also has a 200bhp direct port Nitrous system to top up the Power, using a 100bar 'push' system to further boost Power lets just say enough Power is now available.
The vid shows testing at circa 900bhp & more will be used soon, thats 187mph before half way at Bruntingthorpe & that suggests 213/216mph is within the cars capabilities in the 1.5miles. Talk of course is easy & it has yet to achieve these targets.

And a head designed by two old blokes in a shed in Northampton.

Have they solved the HG issues now?

I think I would like to buy this car in a couple of years time. It would make a handsome addition to the fleet.
