My stock engined n/a NB gets tantalisingly close at Phillip Island front straight (195.2) And if the speedo is half as optimistic as the tacho then it would be showing over 200.. (was a bit busy to actually look if it was)

Thinking I wont have any problems on that long stretch of road leading into Caltex Chase I'm hoping to be on around Easter next year..
