What's The Fastest You Have Gone?

touched 150km/h with city '05-cvt on a clean strech between Ambalangoda and Galle on Galle Rd recently. It was almost going out of control due to cross wind. will never go higher 120km/h with city again.

i have done 140-150 in beach road without any trouble many times! i have no idea about the cross wind at that time as i hardly put my shutters down! anyway the suspension setting of the non-vtec version is softer i guess!

110kmph, Marine Dr; Nissan March

80kmph; Colombo; Mini Minor

Max and I got 110 in a Mini :ninja: Impressive for a small car with me in it :D. Not even streching it. Apparently its easier to go fast with me in it, coz it stabilises the thing and it don't bounce as much :)

cross wind tends to drag ur car to a side. considering the body shape I guess cross wind effect on older city would be less than the new one.

it seriously bloody risky speeding through marine drive.. especially these days so take it easy people.. the winds are VERY rough but lately have toned down a bit but there is a chance of it coming back..

and keep your shutters closed when going at high speed! you will need the extra control with the air being out and you inside...

according to physics.. the turbulance created inside the cabin due to the shutters being open slows down the acceleration a bit.. but when you come to think of it.. most probably the chances of the car going to a side due to crosswinds is at timez slim.. but it is more safer to keep the shutters up as then you will have proper control over the car...i experienced it cuz as i was coming front panadura doing bout 130 odd the open shutters really was annoying and once they were closed.. it was more easier to control..

@ isuru - lolz.. it seems like you would have been happier if dose dudes react once in a way eh? ;-) lmao..

Nadz I have a very interesting story on 'shutters & speed' will mail morrow.

Cross wind on marine drive???? Never felt it- did 135-140 in a bone stock, no alloy, corrola II hatch, 8pm, two people in the car- no issues!

But yeah you gotta be careful of the checkpint just past marryB

Well.. I have so far never jumped a checkpoint at which I am asked to stop.. never wanna try it out either.. lolz.. i usually get caught ALWAYS at the duplication road checkpoint on route to liberty plaza.. somethin with the car they like it seems lolz..

No play with police.. especially those mofo-ing traffic branch officers.. woofah.. they are hell to deal wit..

@ Pila - The cross winds these days are very low.. so no worries.. there was a season i think you would remember where there were heavy.. and i mean heavy blowing.. it was one of those days i chose to cruise down marine drive and man... the wind is so strong that you could feel the strength of it as it tries to turn the steering wheel to the right.. some powerful wind it was...

:alc: Wow I can see why Isuru laughed at me when he said my speeds weren't that scary! Some of you speedos are just down right crazy to even touch the speeds mentioned.........I just wish we had secluded spots of highway to once in a way race out our engine blocks wiithout getting into any trouble! It's pretty evident that the guys overseas enjoy this very often (not fair) :alc:
