    All stock dash are out by a good few % on everything for a reason. Select GPS on the HM Dash and it will give you the REAL speed ;)

    88 mph ... then suddenly everything changed around me there were lights flashing, lightning and I was in the old west and I had no fuel left :(

    at least I found the Doc who promissed to get me home after a few adventures and possible life changing events but I wont bore you with the details !

    On my slightly tweaked RRS saw 190 on the analogue clock, on the rolling road actual speed was 174. If I had fitted the RRT gearbox that would have pulled another
    5 mph. On another trip to Spain saw 186 no more the ECU shuts down no further air/fuel mixture

    I'm near sure the clocks don't read over 185 or 186? No?

    The rumour is that digi clocks display 186mph or 299kph max but didn't get chance to check before switching to HM dash

    I've never seen above that on my clocks but in general I don't look down at the clocks when racing. One and only time I looked it was that 185/186. Wasn't too clear lol

    Having just got a BMC filter cleaning kit I think you are all wusses and need to try harder as none of you would need a filter service according to their instructions.

    PS I think I have seen 120, but not sure, and yes I am a wuss too :)
