Sent this to a mate who works at Rolls Royce - he just laughed
Apparently Phantoms are limited to 155mph but will get there with no effort at all, so tbh, the RS didn't stand much of a chance had they carried on "racing"

well if the RR phantoms are 500bhp , how much do they weigh? would they REALLY smash a focus rs with power to weight and all that?

At those speeds it would piss all over the RS, the weight issue is only an issue with accleration breh.

What that ive no mates or that Im going to flog the escort?
Its fun but I just want to tick the box, have the experience & move it around Feb/March time, hopefully not loosing much cash.
It needs 4 new tyres soon right enough grrrr
Might get a TVR T350 next , quite fancy a burnt orange one.

It wasnt exactly far behind the Focus in that video, they said they were doing 120 and it was easily staying with it. I would say the RR would be quicker.

but where are the stats? 80-120 etc? curious to see these as that phantom is carrying an absolute massive amount of weight.

True, but it still has 200+bhp over the RS, at them speeds weight wont come in to it.
