it´s the swedish authority tell us to move the light to the front.  :police:

I´m little frustated about the topspeed, is it normal to only reach 120 mph? is it possible to reach about 140mph, which adjustment do i need to do. ??

The car is a AA 2 245hk :tu: :tu:

I have a AA 2 Honda, tuned to 275hp, and I got to 135mph on a long straight. After that the "aero wall" takes over! :doh:

That helmet is AWESOME!  Where did you get it?  Looks like the real thing to me. 

BTW - in my stock 245, I'm pretty sure I've hit approx 135 mph on a track.

you can buy many F1 replicas om www.ebay.com and search on f1 helmet. I buy mine for 500 usd and the second for 270 usd. but if you buy without bidding it kost 600-800 usd.

I am surprised the 245s are so slow. My 300 hit 145 fairly easily at Millbrook and had more to go - in fact I think it was nearer 150 but it wasnt easy to look at the speedo at that speed on a bowl ! I regularly hit 140-145 on levant straight at Goodwood.

Speedo - which compared to a gps reads abt 5 pct over  - I was assuming most others were using speedo readings too.

My speed figures were from GPS.  You cannot trust the spedometer at those speeds, unless its been calibrated to perfection.

Why's that? The 300 pushes out nearer 320 bhp, doesn't it? Over 70 bhp more, not inconsiderable.
"So slow" is fairly relative, ain't it!  ;D ;D

Vem installerar den bäst ? (känner du nån) och man kan väl programera om styrboxen ?

I'm sure I saw a UK car magazine last year that timed the 300 doing 150mph at the end of 1 mile- i.e. as fast as the likes of the likes of RS6 Audi up to 150, and considerably faster up to 100.

You should be able to clear 130 in a 245 fairly easier.  On the long straight at Bedford in my mere 120 I have seen 120mph +  But acceleration rapidly drops off at speeds above 100 ish

depending on how fast u get out of the hairpin and how late you brake, you can just nudge 140 in a 220 at Bedford..............I can then get 130-135 before the next hairpin
