it's always different for me it can be as little as a 5 mile round trip or a 550 miles trip, or more when i got abroad. Best 1/4 mile 13.2 seconds @116 mph

38 miles each way! Rotherham to North West Leeds. Leaving at 6.40 I do it in 45 minutes. Leaving at 7am I do it in an hour+. The M1 from wakefield to Leeds is a Joke!

7 miles. 6mins to 20 mins depending on traffic. But has been done in just over 3 and a half mins in an mr2 with a turbo added on for good measure. I dont fancy being in the passenger seat of that thing again. I dont belive that. Thats quite a bit more than 100 mph on average... bit on the optimistic side?
