What speed am I doing???
Was passed by a new SS ute on the way home, bastard had his high beams all the way behind me so I thought I would annoy him with my 2 bright candles
from the Fasty. What speed are you doing when the needle keeps going around and stops on the 10mph needle resting point :P
Too fast to take a happy snap of the speedo sorry!
At least the guy in the ute was laughing.

country |

We have a good time in our bus going up big hills in the country. We are going 100kph and at the start of the big hill cars that are behind us change
lanes to overtake before we even actually are going uphill. They sit in that lane for a bit until they realise we are actually accelerating up the
hill. Some assclowns will then roar past at what could be maybe 140kph, but good luck to them when a radar trap is at the crest of the hill and they
get hammered.

LOL:P OK so Im not the only crazy person but wont be doing it again in a hurry. Straight freeway and a smart ass in a SS ute.
Now how accurate would that speedo be once it passes the 160mph as it hit the rest needle and I was still accelerating which would put me somewhere
around the 240-250kmh area.
Surely not:o

As a disclaimer, mine was actually legal. I went to Valla via NT one year, just so I could do that. A tribute to kombi aerodynamics, it felt totally
stable. It probably took me 10km to get there and the temp gauge went through the roof, so much so that the oil light came on. And then when I got to
Mt Isa I dropped a valve seat. FYI it takes 36 hours to get from Mt Isa to Nambucca Heads on a McCaffertys bus. A bloody long time to be sitting esp
since I had a bad back at the time. Not to mention the overnight stay in Isa was pretty damn scary.

Pete,
That'd make you one of the biggest pests on the road then. The bane of alot of motorists are the f-wits that speed up when they get to an overtaking
lane.
Who promoted you to the position of volunteer traffic speed control?
Hope your speedo is accurate!
