Tom: Slightly faster than a crazy person,
Kieran: As fast as it'll go, but in no danger of getting a ticket...

Me, in the Disco, 62 to 66 or 70 to 80, as between 66 and 70 the front offside steering tries to leap apart. 55/56 if I'm broke and short on diesel.
In the 2WD, whatever's appropriate for the conditions and my wallet.

On Landy Rally, you'll probably end up in convoy a lot of the time, so will travel at a mutually convenient speed. If people are going too slow or too fast for your style and pace, split away and keep an ear out on the CB for anyone else.

Suppose you can easily put up with the lightweight Very Happy
Btw with an appropriate wind drive about 70/ 75 mph ( 133/300tdi) or if you like with a brick on the pedal.A bad wind slows me down till 65 mph. Nevertheless, barely can follow the newer cars in the mountains, and totaly not at the highway

Is that because you make everyone cross? Laughing

Me, never go above the legal limit ... honest. silent

No problem Rickyd. We'll fix a kinetic rope to the back of one of the Range Rovers and you will keep up just fine. On occasions you could even overtake the RR, depends on how taught the rope gets before you get launched forward!!!

You're welcome to tag along with us. We try to go fast but always seems to be the slowest vehicle - hence Lenny keeps rolling along - often until the early hours of the morning Laughing
