Re: Speedo question
50MPH = 80kph
62.5MPH = 100kph
100MPH = 160kph
thats all you need to know for an EK
62.5MPH = 100kph
100MPH = 160kph
thats all you need to know for an EK
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

Re: Speedo question
Want a bet!
Alfords Point Bridge
Heading your way from Sutherland
Hit the corner at about 60 and floor it
Probably better with a strong tail wind.
And early on a sunday morning.
Ok so you might get to 90mph
That was the best I could get..

Re: Speedo question
Wayne do youself a favour and check the speedo for accuracy with a Navman or similar, cops don't believe the "Speedo must be out" line, or the "my old car doesn't even go that fast".
This is fact, I've tried using both these lines and still got fined
