He was doing nearly 50mph in a 30mph zone through the Swiss village of La Punt Chamues-ch in the Alps when he was flashed by the camera.

Gords had his fuelling altered for the run to the Alps....... Do I detect a little testing going on?

:lol:

Oi [-X 50mph in a TDi ... are you mad?! :wink: :lol:

Anyway, we didn't actually do the Switzerland bit :tongue:

And get your facts right, matey ... it was tweaked in Belgium :wink: :lol: I really wish I'd done the mods ready for the Alps :(

Mine will do it on the flat ... as long as the road is long enough :wink:

Nah, what am I saying ... my motor goes like a rocket :wink: (one that's being transported on a lorry)

It's surprising what a few tweeks here and there can do though, I was following Hobbit home last night after a laning trip around North Derbyshire, and quite a few times you could see him clearly pulling away from me - we weren't racing or anything like that, but sometimes say out of junctions or up hill, I had my foot hard to the floor (maybe I should lower the floor or lift the pedal?) and he would be gradually disappearing.
