Default Old mate in a spot of bother after being clocked at 243km/h in his XR6T

At least it looks like an XR6T:



Ahmadi pleaded guilty to reckless driving on Friday, but said in a letter to Joondalup Magistrates Court his car had been tuned differently so he could race it at a motorplex a few days before his high-speed jaunt.

He said he never ended up racing it as the track was 'not good', and didn't drive it until November 7 when he discovered the Ford went 'four times faster than expected'

Magistrate Matthew Walton said the letter was 'remarkable' and was tempted to give Ahmadi a prison sentence.

He stopped short though of jailing the 30-year-old and instead fined him $4,000.

Ahmadi also had his licence suspended for eight months.

'That is an extraordinary speed. The highest speed I can recall dealing with as a magistrate,' Mr Walton said.
