Mine only goes up to 100mph and then the needle just sits at the bottom of the speedo shaking.....

Same speedo as on my silver 56 oval. Had a guy in a new Golf catch up to me yesterday as my speedo was off the dial and told me I was doing 125kph as I tried to tell him they don't go that fast. Have had the needle stopped by the pin on the zero mark on previous occasions,bugger. volma1

125 in an Oval!!! Holy shite. The fastest Iv'e ever been in the Grey beast was 85 and that scared the crap outta me. :o:o

Grey57, take another look the speedo is in kilometres not miles. :thumb


Grey 57 - October 2nd, 2002 at 04:46 PM

11 Cab - Yeah your right,..... used to reading miles in my oval and doing mental conversions to prevent getting me pic taken for speeding. !!!!
125 to 130kph in an oval, been there, done that, got the burn marks in my boxers to prove it !!!
Never again as I choose to cruize "slowly":thumb

Grey 57. may catch up with you if you are going to the weekend affair 25th Oct or meet me at the boat on the Sat morning and organise some cars to cruise with those going to Marysville.


Grey 57 - October 3rd, 2002 at 03:45 PM

Volma , that would be great to catch up. I have booked for the Marysville weekend cruise and I am looking forward to it. Are you bringing a car over for the cruise?

Thats a good idea about cruising up from Station Pier. Let me know what the arrival time is and I'll meet you there. :thumb

lol i didnt notice that myself..
I'm used to miles too...
But not for long...
People freak when you fly past at 100MPH!!


volma1 - October 6th, 2002 at 07:24 AM

Grey 57, I am bringing my grey 56 oval over for the weekend affair and the boat gets in at around 7 am, so will meet you there. cheers volma1


Grey 57 - October 7th, 2002 at 09:26 PM

7am eh, hhmmmm. No worries. I'll be there. Might not be awake but I'll be there. I'll see if any others from the club are starters at the next meeting.
Cheers :thumb
