Talking Maximum speedrun on Autobahn with P300.

The 40 kilometer before had roadworks, so we obediently kept to 82kmh... ..with a swarm of angry Germans behind us...
Result was many empty miles of highway ahead, where we could safely do the trial run...

We did not have the gear to meter it all, its a first attempt. I actually wanted to buy a GoPro to use the "RERUN" app from Jaguar since we would drive a SVR F-Type earlier
the same day. But as I already have the 'Torque" app that does the same with a OBD2 BT connector, I decided not to part from anymore money yet...
A good thought as the SVR hit a bird before its was our turn and busted the radiator...


click on it to watch.. SEE POST #3 for new video links.

I've removed the broken video link in you post #1 and added a re-direct to your new post #3.

5 aborted attempts - so the Autobahn isn't often that quiet!

@GGG We know a very quiet stretch, but even then you need to be lucky. Mostly sunday morning it is completely empty.
We abort if we come up behind a car that approaches a truck in front : we go so fast that those drivers do not see
us in their mirrors. By the time they change lanes, we are right next to them.
