    Which is OK cos, it says this can be gradually increased after the first 2000km

    But, I heard a rumour that it's speed limited to 180kph.

    Anyone in the NT at the moment that can test that theory/rumour? carefully and in the unrestricted speed zone, that was reinstated just for this reason ... Apparently

    I have seen 140 come up very easily when overtaking road-trains,seems to have plenty in reserve.

    Good one Nat I wasn't gonna mention anything like that, except where it's legal I.e. NT ... Never know who's reading the 'metadata'

    But I've noticed (been told ) how quickly 150 pops up and there's STACKS in reserve, and that's going up hill with a full load so I imagine if there is no limiter, they can rip past 200, perhaps off the dial?

    Easy there big fella tempting isn't it? I've still got the radar detector I bought living in WA, I reckon you'll need one if you don't already have one.

    You must have run it in by now?
