Top Speed testing at Nardo in Italy.

Some help from the GPS is needed to tell how fast the car is going



361 km/h: GT Street S from TECHART



Priceless: Improving the aerodynamics




306 km/h: Lorinser GS03 with 550 hp



306 km/h: BMW tuned by Hartge

 

372 km/h: Performance by 9ff - The winner!



314 km/h: Ferrari 360 Modena tuned by LC Racing



316 km/h: Carlsson-Mercedes CK55 RS - 3:rd place



296 km/h: Porsche Digi-Tec

 

315 km/h: Brabus-CLK



The testing gathered quite a crowd




PS. Can the admin please allow more pics / post???????

 

I always thought 9ff was a real killer! Can someone pls translate those speeds in mph.

thanks

 

9ff was doin 231 mp/h.

 

Divide all the numbers by 1.6 to get the MPH equivalents.

 

Where was Ruf with the R Turbo Nardo???

 

Are there by chance any videos of the testing? I think they would be VERY cool vids.

PS_ Nice pics as well.

 

Porsche Digi-Tec did a high speed challange in a Cab with top down?

They must have been out sick the day they taught aerodynamics.

 

but 180mph in a convertible isn't something they teach

 

wonder what speed it would have done if the hardtop was on...

 

I like the fact that the Porsche with stock aerodynamics + GT2 nose (no bodykit bs) is the fastest.

 

I wonder what the acceleration is like on the 9ff. Stock gearing with a raised redline or lower gears?

 

Amir,

The aerodynamics on the 9ff car aren't completely stock.

RUF was a no-show with the Nardo 590 as was Hamann Gallardo and MTM Twin-Engined Bimoto TT. they were scheduled but did not come. the Digi-Tec cab had problems as did the LC-Racing 360. i have an article on it.

below is a link to a short vid. mainly promotional for Continental tires and not the best vid but exciting nonethelss.
