I'm not sure if it's any use but these are my 2 rides on the F11. I don't know why I forgot to record the Rho, but both were bad due to illness (Bossard wheelers I had tummy issues possibly related to too much breakfast and an early start... vommed on the descent, Hemmel I had stepped off a plane from South America 48hrs before, and was jet lagged suffering from plane flu). Both Specialist and Justin Layne recorded times substantially under your target, so it's definitely possible to go quick there. Plus it's reasonably local for London folk.

Compare that to my recent ride (a course pb) on the H10/181 (A40 at Witney) which I think you've also ridden, and is a pretty decent course. I felt good, and I think that this was petty much a perfect evening - I lopped 19seconds off my previous course PB. Anecdotally I'd guess the F11 is maybe a minute faster than the H10/181 on a good day.
