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

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

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.

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.
