Certificate of Speeding

[NormanD]

On Saturday the 14th July I obtained a certificate to say that my XKR was timed at 162.40 MPH between grid references TM320487 and TM340492.

Now would that be Woodbridge?

Was that with a limitter?

Yes, it is just at that speed distance traveled / time taken goes VERRY quickley.

At 162 mph the speedo was reading 170 so speedo 5% out at that speed.



That I thought was impressive was on my first run I started in top (5th) gear, the car pulled away smoothley and still had a speed at the markers of 155MPH
