70mph. Anything more is asking for trouble on the road.

indicated 130 in my 8v digi have a sneaking suspition that maybe slightly optimistic. The point of gtis is acceleration and handling not outright speed. Ever wondered why a lotus elise maxes out at just 126 mph? its cos it doesnt take any bloody skill to acheive max speed. Track times are a different matter cos they matter.
