Oh, I see... I guess I misread that earlier statement.

At 150 aerodynamics really come into play in a big way.


Nice run BTW!

agreed but only if the settings are right. It can be off or on a delay.
I think he was questioning how can the GPS based speed be 168mph and indicated on the dash 171mph, which I wonder as well. At 168mph GPS speed I would expect like 180mph on on the dash, unless tires are not stock sizes.

Hmmm,
187k on the clock on a 964...
I felt comfortable enough to take a pic around 170ish. All the way up to 178-179mph indicated but I dropped the iPhone and at that speed I didn't pick it up to take more pics.

Not a 993 but just saying

My DME has been remapped, showing 313bhp (non-varioram) pulled genuine 167mph in Germany (sat nav stored), only drama was non D platted Eastern European cars moving onto the left lane. The 108,000miler sat more than happy mile after mile between 140-160mph The car does not live beneath 4000rpm. No additional aero, so was a bit tippy toe.
