Well I think could have done better if I had remembered to put the top up.

 

 

Crazy man!

 

Was down at Newport Beach Bentley lounging with their crew. Those 2013's are mesmerizing!

 

Wedgeduck, nice and funny as I just got off the phone with my cousin in Newport Beach. Wife and I will be there in a few months and would be great to meet up! Will PM you dates/contact info. And yes, saw the new 2013 models at the dealership last week and they indeed look very enticing!

 

I really want one, but the sticker price is can be shocking. I want one just to molest and cut up! . I can wait abit. 2012 will be abit more fairly priced by next year.

 

You must have some long straights to get there. I've heard it takes about 5 miles wind-up to get to that speed! Did you do any prep - alter tire pressures, tape down the roof? Did you have a tail wind? More details please!

 

Ken, I'm pretty sure he was just kidding around.

 

About 3 miles to wind up to 200. Depending on the tuning in your vehicle. They can get to about 150 ish in a mile., but why 2 more miles to get up to 200? I don't understand

 

Well, that's a surprise!

 

[QUOTE=kensilver;3802388]Well, that's a surprise! [/QUOTEYou have to visit me one day. I need to show you something as a Bentley Boy. You will be amazed it's been a long year for me. But so fun. I get to watch history in the making and the GT3 at the LA Auto Show. That car is so sexy!

 

It is the rule of cubes. It is the same for boats in water. This is an example for rowing:
"The resistance in rowing is due to the drag of the water moving over the hull of the boat. By the laws of hydrodynamics, this resistance/drag varies to the cube of the velocity/speed. The rule of cubes therefore dictates that a doubling of the speed of the boat will require an eight-fold increase in resistance."

If you need to know anything else, just let me know.

 

Was that in you dreams or for real? Heuvos are bigger in Tx.

 

The basic of hydrodynamics and areodynamics are pretty much the same. It still boggles me when I do the basic math. And cars that are much more lighter and streamline, will reach the mile with way more speed than me. And they even carry less way less horsepower. I narrowed it all down and just simplify that she is a cow. All the HP is used up in pulling that mass. The race areodynamics that I have in mind for a future date, and pretty built as a race car, should have some serious drag coefficient numbers. One day. I got this cow still to test. April 5, is the track date. I should be in Texas on the third.
