Shepherd and docile are at both 1000+ bhp at the wheels now from 2L.(4g63)

BTW whoever painted that car knows their onions....that paintjob is fantastic.

you misunderstand me my friend.
i have absolutely zero doubt that Martins figures are 100% accurate and i consider the Norris Designs Evo in exactly the same way.
my point was that in another thread Matt82 ridiculed a post of mine in which i quoted the ND car having a similar power output....now he seems to acknowledge the figures provided by Martin,yet according to his post in the other thread such power is the stuff cartoons are made of.

quoted below so you can see what i'm referring to:-

posts #57 and #73 and a few afterwards should be of interest to you as you seem to know your stuff.

do you work for Martin?

in case you missed my earlier point and thought i was rubbishing the power claims,i'll point you in the direction of the post i was addressing.

sorry but i have to say something nice about that Escort in every one of my posts.....it's just astonishinlgy desireable.

I don't work for Martin but have been good mates with him for years.

I havn't been on OCUK for a while which is why I hadn't seen the other post you linked to etc

This is what Version 1 was capable of with normal road tyres and around 580 bhp :eek:

not shown on the vids but at the end of the days testing it manages 0-60 in 2.89 , 0-100 in 6.06 and a top speed of 194.7mph

Aye, and crashed...badly

Awesome bit of engineering though...It'll be good to see what the new one does.

Oblivious · 16 Jan 2006 at 16:10

Some of the other teams on the Gumball had less than complementary comments to make about the Reyland guys.

Was great news that none of them had serious injuries, but there reckless driving endaged several other gumballers.

Cars looking very impressive anyway, thanks for the updates Ish.

thebrasso · 16 Jan 2006 at 16:17

I'd have watch it again but the Reyland car was doing some mental overtake IIRC and they lost control...

The new car looks awesome!

Ish · 28 Jan 2006 at 11:08

Finally it's on all 4 wheels!! Minus some graphics this is how the finished car will look externally!

Next job is all the shiny alloy bits :cool:
