Impressive, Stu.

Or did you do my trick, taking a photo when the speedo was at it's highest point whilst swinging its balls off between 60 and 80 :mrgreen:

Must have been close to valve bounce at 85mph or do I suspect some engine or differential trickery here??? :nerdie:

No trickery, stock grey.
No speedo 'bounce'
May have been some valve bounce but this motor seems to love to rev.
Got it to 90mph on the way home (trying to outrun a red!)
No competition Tim (no clock :D )

Did go through that speedo check sign on the highway on the way down doing a smidge under 70 mph and it flashed '107kmh' which is pretty darn close.

I love this car, starts first go every go and has only let me down when I snapped axles (rare as hell - only happened twice :D and won't happen again because their now billet)

It's alright Stu, I know how you feel. Bit like me trying to chase down the healthy Windsor powered roadsters of a couple of with my near stock flatty... :shock: :mrgreen: I'm having fun even if I have a snowflakes chance in hell of catching them let alone beating them.... :thumbsup:

That's exactly right Brett, the difference with your rod is it's either wet or freezing too! :)

But it's all about cruising... 8)
