Plug in 5-8% typical speedo error and you get 203-210mph....still rather impressive. Was that the H2 or the H2R that did that?
The only sure thing is nobody here has any clue whatsoever what the error, if any, is on the H2/R. :up:
YOU'RE welcome https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fYGt3BEDzcI Imagine a full grid of those f'ers racing at once?
Main straight on Losail is how long? 1/2 mile or a little over? So it could be and probably is, that was not even its true top speed?
If that's the case then I'm thinking it must've been an H2R that cut that 221mph trap speed up there. The supposed HP of the regular H2 is about 200hp which is just a tad bit under what WSBKs are generating and they aren't getting anywhere close to 220mph on Losail's front straight, so it would've needed that extra 150hp of oomph to punch it up that fast.
I don't care how "fuctional" all those winglets and pointy bits are, that thing ain't got no alibi.....
