Nah, it's not even in the car, it's sitting on his workbench! ;-)

It's not my car (LHD speedo for a start) - just a pic off the net that someone else had played around with the text, so I thought I'd have some fun.

In terms of a geuniune photo? Dunno, I didn't take it, but I imagine it would be hard to keep the camera still at that speed (but how would I know, the fastest I've been is 70mph!)

Fastest a LHD RS4 customer has been is 7400 RPM in 6th gear on standard tyres/gearing. Around 318km/h real speed (199mph or so), car was totally off the clock. I'll try to get the video.
