i did mine in the same distance, on the same airfield, with the same timing gear, on the same day 
yes... but you missed my point 
Marcus didnt exactly go the distance... he spun at 183mph 
seems to be passing the marker where the trap ends just as it spins. As in let off throttle as the run was over?

As for your point no my 173 wasn't the top speed either I'd say. Reckon I might have 10mph of more left in it.

1km, 170mph in a corsa is still pretty dam impressive, especially home brewed as well. What did that Specky tigra do?
Compliment over, is it fueled on anger? Thats good for 50bhp
