How Fast have you been on land??? - WARD P - 23-07-2006
Just got back from China Yesterday.
They have a train over there that goes 431kmph.
Had to do it!!! Incredible - it even leaned through corners!
By the time it had slowed back down to 300 it felt quite slow. Looking out the window though, travelling through Shanghai you got a great sensation of speed.
Pity the whole ride only lasts 8 minutes, and max speed lasts about 2 minutes.

You'd have to stick your head out of the window to really enjoy the experience.
300 quite slow! Yep I'll run with that one...

Re: 431kph up the Reefton... - pan - 25-07-2006
Trains, trains, trains. That's all you can say?
Why do you guys carry on about how fast your friggen train is? If ya want to go fast just sell the train and buy a jet plane. You guys just talk about the train for bragging rights... You can't even ride the train fast... I bet If I had my Busa and you had your train I could still beat you up the Reefton...
Re: 431kph up the Reefton... - Blackzook - 25-07-2006
RIGHTON Pan what a fuggin wank bet that train only hits full throttle once in every blue moon. Total waste. How does it go thru corners - total shit - old puffing billy would smack it up the reefton.
People who ride in that rain only do cause its the fastest. Wankers - wait till a faster train is released bet they feel like shit then Bruce
N2O no laughing matter
