There was a run by Honda with a modified car that wouldn't be legal but someone did do a similar speed with an F1 car that would be legal, either Honda in a subsequent of previous attempt or McLaren maybe...

Discuss the sport you love with other motorsport fans
Remember that stunt Honda did, they got an F1 car up to what, 245mph with modded wings?
That was a to-the-regs car as well. No un-raceable parts. All of it was race-legal F1 stuff.
Think rubens is abit of a has been he had a chance in a Ferrari and he couldn't beat Schui.
Correction. He wasnt allowed to be beat Schumi.
But if he came to Ferrari and took the piss out of schui do you really think it wouldnt of been the other way round
He wasn't allowed to even remotely try that either, Barrichello had plenty of days when he would make Schumacher look second best, and then the call would come from Jean Todt to move over. ie. Austria 2002.
Formula 1 in is the most watched motorsport series in the world.
its got the best drivers and the fastest cars.
i'm enjoying this season, last season was great also.
The only think i'm abit miffed is with the FIA.
Wheres the problem?
Actually you could say your equal to Indy. Indy cars are quicker by the way, they are actually designed to Jets. If you listen to one, they sound different from a F1 car. I hve a friend who is in charge at Panther Racing.
Indy cars are not quicker by F1 cars by a long shot.

The DP01 Champ Car was faster around Laguna than an 06 Toyota F1 car.

Have you actually been to a track with more than one Indy car running at the same time? I find in annoying as all hell,
Every car makes the exact same noise at the exact same places on the track, due to the same engines used. They don't sound anywhere as High Tech as an F1 car at full throttle. They're also visually not interesting (except for Danica) the bodies are all the same, and they look like they were F1 cars from the 70's. I've been to both F1 and IndyCar races and there's no comparison at all. Indycar is a mere shadow of what CART used to be.

I'm sure the rear wing was replaced with one single fin, or the rear wing was removed apart from the central element.

Actually i prefere Indy Car's to F1 cars, there bigger and alot sexier. IN MY OWN OPINION I like them allot and would love to drive one, plus they don't cost as much as F1. The drivers don't have to pay for there drives? (Andretti Green Racing) but i must admit the system for Indy is very strange....
No, unfortunately not. But with that comment? What has this to do with woman? if your ever implying anything about my Fiancé? i have 2 words for you. Otherwise i find there form of racing more interesting, in the form of glamorous racing F1 is the preferred choice of mine. I do watch F1 more but i find Indy a nice change. That's all.
