I think it is currently held by an Escort Cosworth....and I think its time for Jabbas World to own that record now....perhaps it could be broken in an F40 ????

gis · 10-29-2003, 11:35 AM

wow yeah definately in an F40

is it held by that martin hadlands ford escort?

Jabba · 10-29-2003, 11:44 AM

if you put the ford gt and 360 side by side without tellin someone the name, someone that didnt know the history of the gt40, they would pick the ford because its a better car, just as Jezza picked it over a 360. and he's the biggest ferrari nut, that says alot!

i second that!!

breaking the record in a Zonda will make it unbreakable...unless someone tries with a McLaren F1.

LOL!

You'd better pick a quiet moment for that record and if you do I bet you can beat that Cossie with the Diablo.

First we gotta find out what the damn record is.....

cho_888 · 10-29-2003, 05:15 PM

yes we need to find the record, then we know how much faster jabba is!

gis · 10-29-2003, 05:16 PM

i checked a couple of magazines 2nite tryin to find info on this record,in the back of my mind i think its held by martin hadland as he has the fastest escort cosworth in the UK,but unfortunately i couldnt find a time :cry:

Jabba · 10-29-2003, 05:23 PM

I think what with all the new strict guide lines on speeding in the UK its become a very much underground record hence why its not talked about much these days....or so it would seem...

I think a Koenigsegg would beat the Zonda... or even the Mac F1 for that matter... proven 242mph capabilities... and its powered by a Ford V8, (thats y i love it).

Jabba · 10-29-2003, 05:33 PM

Here we go again...I will say it once again...having a car that can go that speed is one thing... driving it at that speed is another.....no one ever seems to consider how much skill / stupidty is required from the driver to sustain those sort of speeds...

gis · 10-29-2003, 05:39 PM

plus i aint seen a koinigsegg doing 242mph,the one on gumball was only word of mouth,not video proven

Jabba · 10-29-2003, 05:42 PM

oh...and how long did the koinigsegg last btw before it broke down....??? probably wouldnt have made it past the first junction on the JW 24-hour...at least I have the video of my 185 mph..and was doing it all day long as well....
