Wouldn't that just be completely off the clock ?

The most i have had to date so far is 169mph on GPS (180mph on speedo) and there is clearly still some extra 'go' left in the car but have never had the road space to try for more!

Yeah... the last 20 mph are hard work, even on German Autobahns

Last time at Ring F/O down the Dottinger in a limited Black motor, speedo was bang on 155, GPS read 149, and MattCSLnutt was wondering wtf I was slowing up for !

Yeah... what was that all about m8 I thought the Black ones were the Faster ones My max speed down the Dottinger-Hohe was 168 on the clock (156 GPS)

Wayyyy off. I dunno, never done, just something I "heard" - as Alex says, who really cares

68 mph is dangerously slow
You're more then welcome to sit in the passenger seat of my SG CSL for the roller-coaster ride that is the Nordschleife

I'll take you up on that, thx Matt - want a pax before my first turn...

Does the glove box come with the optional bog roll holder ?

I know from BMW Motorsport that Rossi bought a brand new CSL couple of years ago.
BMW Motorsport found it locked up in the basement of some dealer and gave it to Rossi.

On this note, we should ask Valentino to join our forum

That would be absolutely amazing if he did Alex!

I believe that he has also very recently driven the new M3 GTS model too!

No m8... but it sounds like I might have to install the optional "Jesus !!! handle"
