Hi there I am a new member looking for some answers(i tried searching here) about a query i have relating to the Veilside R32 drag car. I was googling it and i came up with this article http://www.dragsport.com/dept/cover_story/3/index.shtml as you can see at the top of the page it says it has run a 8.612 @ 172.5 MPH on radials(nitto's i presume) But this clip i found of an old HPI dvd seems to contradict that http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJ_PORr4SkA as it clearly does a 8.61sec pass at 163.13mph on Nitto's. The article must be wrong about the mph surely or has the Veilside car managed to run something like 5-7mph faster than any other car on radials?
