What's the fastest can ever take your Scirocco? - more numbers

[brian_wagner at sbcglobal.net (Brian Wagner)]

It was definately an interesting sight, I can vouch that that were definately going fast. Fast than what the law would allow, but Patrick did ask the collective group if he could go play and we said yes.
 
Is that speed impossible "no" probable "yes", my stance I am not saying anything until the fat lady (oh excuse me the skinny canadian) sings. Given the right conditions anything is possible.
 
And yes it was infact a GSR

How do I know I do 102.5 WHP and 121 of torque.. On a calibrated Dyno of
course.

All charts I got done , located under Dyno charting on the menu bar of my
web site.

How do I know I was going over 130MPH, I guess you will have to take my word
for it, chasing a GSR @ 6600 RPM, the digifiz indicated 148MPH (converted by
web site of course as digifiz is KPH), but after using the Gears calculator,
it tells me that I was at 138MPH, no radar gun, no other proof to offer.
Except perhaps the testimony of the guys that were behind me at 70mph, can
perhaps tell you what it looked like.. :)

->PB,
-> I did not say you couldn't do over 100. (reread my very 
->short post) Notice you didn't say you HAVE gone over 130, but 
->that you COULD. I assumed you HAVE and that is why I asked 
->how you knew you were going 130 (the car's speedo, radar gun, 
->time/distance measurement, etc?) and how you know you have 
->102.5 hp (educated guess, dyno (calibrated?), calculated, 
->dyno-on-a-dash, etc?). Let's have some documentation....this 
->IS a list of engineers, right?
-> 
->I can SAY "I have 131.7 horsepower and I can do over 165mph." 
-> That doesn't mean I have DONE it.
->So, how do you know you "can do over 130"? See third 
->sentence above. 
->That's all.
