Had a great day Saturday at Wings and Wheels. They gave us 4 top speed runs along the Top Gear runway. Managed 137 mph before s******g out. A 458 italia ran out of runway and spun out on the grass. had the Vulcan do one of its last displays, quite awesome.
Yes I'm down in the official program, my son was running the DB9 and he clocked 157 mphWere the top speed runs in your own GS?
(and I see you own a DB9 - sooo jealous!)
yes the Vulcan then the Typhoon on full after burners truly awesome sounds to behold.Sounds great
If u had to guess, what do u think you could have got the GS up to ?
Thing is they started us off at a third of the way down the runway, so we only had just over two thirds of a mile before we had to brake.If u had to guess, what do u think you could have got the GS up to ?

possibly 140+?
157 mph
Is the db9 much faster on the straight ? I have never been in one .
Absolutely cracking day - seeing the Typhoon and the Spitfire flying in tandem was truly a sight to behold. My GTS managed 153 on it's last run, but that was leaving the braking till the last minute.....perhaps a little skid mark on the inside too!!
Thanks for the compliment, it would have been nice to speak to you on the day, maybe next time?Hi,
I was there as well your Gransport and Granturismo looked lovely.
It was such a great day. That last pass by the Vulcan my ears will remember for some time! The Typhoon was incredible.
Another of the highlights was seeing a La Ferrari for the first time, then seeing it belt it down the runway.
The Red Arrows display was the best I've seen. Truly scary stuff!
