Its very quick, but during the day it is difficult to breach 200mph, which is why i was so happy with this pic.

The other night we Vmaxed the car, and its quite funny feeling the car head but the limiter in the 6th.

Also tomorrow Ruf are changing our tyres to Conti sport contact 2's as i think the current yokohama avs we are running are absolute crap.

Can anyone remember what the speed rating for the contis are?

cheers

It depends on the model Conti. If you get the SC2 VMAX (new tire) it is over 220mph I think.

The ContiSportContact 2 Vmax is Continental's Max Performance Summer tire that was designed to be the fastest "off-the-shelf" tire in the world. Intended for ultra-fast, high-end customized sport cars and performance sedans, the ContiSportContact 2 Vmax is the first road tire certified by Continental for speeds of up to 225 mph (360 km/h), a speed at which the tires must withstand revolving approximately 50 times every second while they carry the vehicle 330 feet (100 meters) down the road.
