Question

We all know the Red Victor 1 is the fastest street legal car in the world. But what exctly is its top speed? All I can find is that it goes 0-60 in 1 second and has 2200 BHP. Whats its top speed?

Answer 1

(1972 Vauxhall Victor, modified, now called Vauxall Victor 2 modifications), the Red Victor 1; does 0 - 60 MPH in 1 second, and the 1/4 mile in 7.8 seconds @ 183.07 so they say. Arnie "The Farmer" Beswick - "Mr. Pontiac, with a Factory 1968 Pontiac Firebird with 428 cid engine, with blower did a 1/4 mile in 6.94 seconds @ 215.5 MPH, car was called the "BOSS BIRD"! Mickey Thompson in 1960 with 4 Pontiac 389 engines (modified), made a car called the "Challenger 1" it did 406 MPH top speed (1600 H.P. estimated)! OH yeah, RED VICTOR 1 - top speed 200 MPH estimated. Fastest Factory built car in 1961 - 1961 Pontiac Catalina 421 Super Duty,  Hayden Proffitt, 1/4 mile in 12.55 @ 110.20 MPH, fastest car in the world at the time, not bad for 1961. 1963 with Pontiac Engineering, Knafel Anderson Pontiac, built GTO prototype, "Running Bear", Factory 1963 Pontiac Tempest Lemans 421 Super Duty - Arlen Vanke did 1/4 mile in 11.89 seconds @ 123.28 MPH, Sept. 1963, NHRA National Record (A/FX)! Arnie Beswick beat the debut of the new (Dodge) Mopar 426 Hemis and debut of the new Ford "Thunderbolts" 427s with his Factory Pontiac Tempest Lemans 421 Super Dutys and 1963 Pontiac "Swiss Cheese" Catalina 421 S.D.! So there you go, 200 MPH top speed, the Red Victor 1 should do, so they say.

Answer 2

Might not be that fast to be geared for that kind of acceleration. I do not think it is the fastest anymore or the quickest.
