Default Jun Super Lemon Top Speed

I know its not about a Scooby but need to let everyone know my hubby the mad man is gonna do this ohhhh my god. This is a thread he put up on the GTR forum.

After a lot of talking and thinking with Tweenirob. We were going to try and get in the top 5 of the 0 to 300 klm skyline records. which it would of done.
We both have decided to go full out on a top speed record.
Gonna change the diffs and turbos and aero work and go full out for 250 mph.

The Jun Super Lemon as you may know was a sister car for the Hyper Lemon.
All the parts were developed in the Super Lemon for the Hyper Lemons top speed runs in the 49th Bonneville Speed Trials. JUN Hyper Lemon R33 made a new world record of 383.715km/h in the F/BGCC Class.

Which is 383.715 kilometer/hour = 238.429 447 029 mile/hour (mph)

So now the Super Lemon is going for its sister cars record.

This is the next step i am going to do with the car. Its done its 9 second pass.
Its done its 0 to 1 mile 200 mph.

I just need a challenge.

And i think this is the one.

Lot of work to do over the winter not just to the car . But to sort a venue out that will have a big long straight. I would like to see a 4 to 5 mile straight to be safe to do this.

Anyway that's the crack with the Lemon.

Thoughts on a possible venue, what about the test facility where James May maxed the Veyron? I'm sure it was a VW site in Germany.

IIRC, wasn't the quote "it's like driving a nuclear explosion"?
