Sorry bud. I was a stretch of new bypass before it opened. Got passenger to verify and the guard who let me on. I'm always within legal limits. All the time. Honest.

146mph gps indicated with a tail wind, although I dont believe my speedo or my gps so god knows how fast it really was.

The missus maxed out her octavia vrs 'siren and blue light clad company car' the other night in pursuit and only managed to record 123mph on the cars calibrated recording equipment when the speedo was reading somewhere between 130-135mph.

Always thought speedos seem to be a bit of a white elephant above a ton.

I didn't know if it had anything else left in it, as someone had just pulled into my lane so I was easing off somewhat
same speed also on gps (tom tom) that was on a standard engine. i dont think the mods will do anything to top speed i think they are just for acceleration
