Re: [DML] Top Speed

[Thomas Mc Auley <dmc4087@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Would be good to test the top speed, but I only have the 85mph speedo and I dont really want to change it.
   
  What speed do you think a stock engine would do Martin? From experience or just in theory ;-) :-p

variations thereof) with lowered front springs and one game guy with a 
completely stock ride height and stock catted exhaust*. None of those 
involved thought they had topped out and the sat nav in the lead car 
recorded a top speed of 122mph

* always did go well, that car... now de-catted and lowered, together 
with the majority of DeLoreans in the UK!
