   Yeh real funny... I'm not the one who has fuck all better to do than take the piss on online forums... I've had 4 vts's and been using this forum for years please grow up. Speedo ends at 140 and I'm due to go to an airfield soon. Had them off the dial in the past but I know they can be quite a bit out at those speeds so wondered if anyone had a link to an rpm-speed table/graph as this will bypass speedo error. Is that really such a bad question? Jesus Christ.

   Surely you don't need a RPM - Speed table as they aren't totally comparable? Depends on wheel size, surface and inclination of the road itself?
   
   I think you'll struggle to find an accurate speed.

    surely if you was going to an airfeild you would prepare if you wanted to find out your top speed by getting a a sat nav , and i would say as above if your indicator fluid is low i would expect you to be going more than 500mph just so you dont get to excited

    with a 7800rpm 151.9mph. Thats not to say you will actually hit that speed on the road btw. I have a spread sheet on my PC at home.
    Its the same one Joesnow used in the sticky thread. (he created the spreadsheet, but i have a copy )
    
    141.9mph is standard wheel size, gearbox and limiter.
    
    
    
    
    
    
    Think its all pretty much accurate.

    that graphs above give a good indicator but cnat say deffinate anyting as theres too many factors,
    
    trye pressure, aerodynamics of the car, head/tail wind if any, gradient of road, road surface, temperature outside, condtion of engine ..............
