Well, not much choice there Craig Lift off and die !! change in downforce, c of g etc will bite the timid hand Even worse on a bike - you have to wind it on through turn 1 @ the creek to keep it tight

I managed to get my stock, [with auto], 1200 coupe up to 112kph [69mph] down a steep hill with a strong tailwind while on my way to Canberra one day.

My 120y A14 round port pass the 160km\h.

105 Km/h in "The Iron Maiden"




when I did that speed it DID NOT have the bonnet scoop on it...

as it is a b itch to see past it!...

not wanting to repeat that speed run either!

my speedo only goes to 160, new carbys and windows up, i had the speedo bouncing on the 160km/h bar, so probably 180, with 4 speed, very happy, can't wait to take her to willowbank
you can't kill these engines!!!

the old a15ett "red rocket" coupe used to have me hanging on to tha harnesses by the time we hit 4th

i remember doing a cruise to apollo bay and back through colac doing about 145km/h and not even hitting it hard. 5th gear in that thing used to just cruise like it was nothing at all

top speed in my barina? about 140, then you worry that the g-forces are gonna spontaneously crumple the car and squish you. Or not. But it's damn scary

i had it up to 150km/h 2day... i dont think she liked it to much with the 4 speed

160kph which is off the clock in the y but was still pulling strong and only in 4th still got a gear to go

110, i dont speed .
:

is it bad to be sitting on 110-120 in a 4 speed 1200 at high revs for a while for highway use???
