Did anyone see top gear tonight with the NORRIS DESIGN EVO7 trying for the world record in towing a caravan the fastest. Well if you did you will know that at 125MPH with caravan it blew up, so if anyone thinking they could beat this car, now is the time to do so:D :D

 

Also i dont think i will be racing any VX220 VAUXHALLS if i see any on the road 0-60 in 4secs and 150mph SH*T:eek:

LOL yea now that was funny:D could not believe it when the bloody thing started to fall apart :D

The car that holds the record is a Escort Cosworth. We saw it race at Three Sisters Track in Wigan. Wasnt that impressive around a track.

 

Apparently the owner said it could be a Fireblade (I think it was) motorbike in a 1/4 mile race. Yeah right

Theres a bit of a big stink about ND evo, apparently TG arent paying for it?!?

4 tuns in all in the day apparently, and didnt leave it long enough to cool down properly. Arent second hand stories great ;)

Yes the reyland cossie (martin hadland) has the current record, and it took it away from a 'tuned up' (not sure what had been done) dodge/chrysler viper.

LMFFAO Norris EVO seems to blow up more than my car lol. flipping awesome car.

This is Nelsons worse thread. Its a speed record for towing more mass. ;)

Well, you said it...also, by all accounts, its not actually that fast on a track.

So...slow and blows up, sounds like a winning combination ;)

He does build good engines by all accounts, but he's just going for the biggest power output...wehn he obviously shouldnt be! :)

The white 200sx he has (used to have?) was very fast tho!

He should have got a red one. Would have been faster.

125mph with a caravan Phaa! I am gona kill that record LMFAO:D

I didn't think they would break the record when he said "look it does 130 easy without the caravan" LOL

If it doesn't do much more than 130 then how the hell is it going to get a caravan near the record?

 

Should have got a Z on a longer runway IMHO :D

Didn't that escort cossie do something mad like 150 with the caravan?

 

You'd have to go some to beat that :D

LOL I will try and beat the 125mph first,If I dont get any problems then the caravan goes down the A1:D;)

 

 

I reckon Clarkson blew up the caravan on top gear on purpose, he hates them! :D

 

Mind you don't we all, although I'd have more respect for caravans if I got overtaken by one at 150mph ;)

One of the bastards broke the glass on my drivers door mirror a couple of weeks ago :mad: kill 'em all I say!

ND evo is looking for 200+ with out caravan not 130

Im looking for a winning lottery ticket,

the americans are looking for weapons of mass destruction,

the cossie literally did 128.86 mph towing the caravan, if it had done 150 then the record would have been 150??!

Yep got that Reyland cossie doing it on video,thing that impressed me was, it was midddle of winter,ice all over the runway and the nutter still went for it,:eek: top bloke:D

But I guess its like putting 18"s or 19"s on a corsa et al...they may rub like **** on the arches and explode and have a turning circle like the jarhe viking...but it doesnt matter, they got the wheels on.

ND got to 180 and blew up...but it did it never the less ;)

 

All said tongue in cheek of course, as ND does good machines!

Saw Macca's car practicing with his new Light weight caravan today not sure where he was though, Max (his dog) was driving.

He probably stopped off at the launderette on the way home and got stuck in the washing machine again. :D
