Uphill with a headwind. Good old grey

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

YOR SPEEDO IS INCORRECT

Does 68 with a clock beat 85 without a clock?

Well if you're gonna take one at least you made it count!

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

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 )

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 and won't happen again because their now billet)

Trying being the key word

Smart arse

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... I'm having fun even if I have a snowflakes chance in hell of catching them let alone beating them....

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

But it's all about cruising...
