130km/h speedo

From what i can gather, this change not only has a 0% chance of being implemented but even if it did it would not affect us. The proposed speed limit by Bracks is apparently only going to apply to brand spankin new Australian produced cars. It may become a compliance issue but i still dont think that it will affect skylines whatsoever considering that even the newest R34 GTR would not be considered a new car.

The fact is this: this will only affect those brand new Commo's and Falcornies not us. So therfore the only people complaining should be people on the HSV or FPV forums, not us.

P.S- Sucked in... you VB drinkin Bogans Now skyline owners wont be getting any drags from brand new stock HSV's

But that would suck! Thats the best thing about dragging in a skyline, killing the top of the line Fords & Holdens with our little 2.5 & 2.6 L engines !

Well then i guess we'll need to do it within the speed limit which shouldnt be a problem anyway so dont fret. Its just that the V8's wont be so eager. Also imagine track days, there will be a lot less bogans out there if the new cars had that limit, they would need the mod them to race.

Therefore more space for skylines

Interesting idea...

Flash back... I can remember shopping for a new car with dad when i was like 7 (1980's) and he was looking round the car yard for a suitable family car. I was looking at the spedo's on every car and saying to dad this one can go 200kph... no wait this one can go 260kph... hold on this one can go 280kph... I thought that this was the top speed of the motor vehicle... (Remember i was only 7)... If only life was still so simple... LOL

When my bike dash initialises, it flashes up '888' for a second or so while the speedo resets. That'd have to make it officially the fastest wheel-driven vehicle, ever
