heckling from the back!
Not around the M25, but I and some friends did have several late night m/c blasts around the inner ring road in Coventry [pre-1985].
That was some good fun, as the local feds on sticks usually ignored us, unless someone was being especially stupid / loud.
We didn't play for hours, as that would almost guarantee official notice because of complaints.

Yeh I am aware of camera surveillance. You haven't explained why you would need fake plates to achieve the record tho.
Sad bastards
You need false plates to at least try to avoid the police finding and prosecuting you.
Average of 160MPH round the M25 is quite likely to lead to a custodial sentence these days.

Is that a Mk2 Ford Escort? Rear wheel drive and incredible fun

A number of years ago PH was quite fun and you got people who really know what they are on about on there like Reg Local ( ex traffic bobby, ex police driving instructor / response and advanced driving trainer , now a civvie advanced driving and riding coach and you tube creator ) now it's just gammons beating their chests

I probably need to recalibrate my feelings as regards speed. My last steed was a 1977 Suzuki 750 with a top speed of 125mph. Probably 20-30 years ago I had a couple of run ins with Honda VFR800s which told me that I was already out of date. In one instance we were doing about 80 when a tractor appeared blocking the road. We slammed on our brakes (the VFR was two up) and I sailed past the VFR which was slowing so much faster than me it was ridiculous. Luckily I just managed to stop in time but the VFR was leagues ahead of my Suzuki where brakes were concerned.
Another time on a twisty road in north Scotland I was riding with a bunch of bikes including a VFR again and again two up. We blasted on on the road which had very grippy tarmac, I couldn't lose the VFR which remained right on my shoulder. When we stopped I looked at my rear tyre, it was as if someone had taken a wire brush to it, all scuffed. I looked at the rear tyre on the VFR and there was no wear at all.
I am sure if one compared a VFR800 to today's bikes it is probably out of date also. Do I have another bike in me? And how modern would I go?

So you only need fake plates if you don't want to claim the record. They're not actually integral to the attempt.

I do; Pickman's model was right to challenge the erroneous claim made by the OP.

How do I change this 'custom title' thing then?
See that's what's great about Urban. On any other torum someone would have done a '40 yer old escort' gag...
But not here, oh no,
