Now, anyone believe it was in my disco? :cool:
East coast motorways are easily safe for 160kph trouble is all these years of bunk that if you go over 110 you will kill the entire human population, the roads are up to it, the cars are up to it, are Australian drivers though?

The speedo was most likely wildly inaccurate but the car could pull 6,200 rpm down the straight at Lowood on a 3.55 diff and 175 x 14 Dunlop SP41's.Quote:

Speed limit(?) sign in a diner in Williams Arizona - Route 66 - may have been a genuine sign back when engines/transmissions and tyres would 'talk' to you, and you knew when it was getting time to back off a bit...

You are obviously fishing for a reaction with that post. Either that or you have never driven on the National highway north of Newcastle. try not to make it so obvious next time, you might get someone in. .....oh..... you got me..... yeah. BobQuote:

A few decades ago the State of Montana (Big Sky Country) had no speed limit for cars, just what was called "fair and reasonable" during daylight hours, and then something like 75 at night for cars , 65 for big trucks.
All worked fine until the car companies, (Mercedes USA comes to mind) who started using the state highways as high speed proving grounds.
That activity dicked it all up and 75 MPH is now the Interstate limit.
Generally speaking the two states in the northern tier, Wyoming and Montana don't enforce the limits unless you are driving recklessly.
You can even pack a firearm with no problems either!
Two of my most favorite states in the Union to visit, and I cross them often going up to the missus home in Idaho.
Here's a tourist clip of Wyoming. Where the public rest stops, lay-bys, and ablutions are clean & well kept and don't smell like lion's dens!
Great place to run your LR and "stretch" it legs.
No state taxes either! Gotta be a plus!

No taxes was good. $2.25 for a draught beer in Hardin, MT. $4.20 for a six pack of 16oz cans of Milwaukee strong stuff. I thought the guy in the cornerstore said $14.20 and told him he had given too much change. funny liquor laws though. A "liquor store" can only sell wine and spirits, not beer. Beer is bought at the corner store, supermarket, and gas station.Quote:
