RE: True Speed/Indicated Speed ???? & some noise



I may be wrong, but I reckon your speedo is reading approx 91%.
96 indicated would be about 105.

It is often said that here in the UK the police allow 10% on speedo readings, 
but how many times have I heard 'I was only doing 68 but they did me for 75?'

So, if you allow up to 10% inaccuracy, maybe your speedo is at 82% (117 mph) 
or could be pretty close to 100%.

Whichever, they're all Fast and would probably get you banned here - but who 
cares? How fast doesn't matter - just as long as its FAST.
