| That's impressive, even with a worst case 10% error that's still 98mph! I admire your patience. Was the car stock standard at the time?

| Whats a mere 300mph between friends? I will admit to not having a speedo with me at the time but it did feel a bit faster than my car.

| Looking at your user name I was expecting about 180!  Doing those speeds on the Motorway is really reckless and can easily lead to a long ban
I wonder what you'd get on a long straight track
