I got up to 70MPH to test my speedometer yesterday when takign my 944 in for timing belt and waterpump. I'd figured out the RPM for 70, wanted to see what the speedometer said. At the right RPM, it was 82MPH indicated for 70 real speed. Almsot all of my driving is on 30MPH, 35MPH, 40MPH, and 45MPH roads. Very rarely do I get teh fun of a 55MPH road, and I almost never visit the interstate system. (70MPH on either side of Charlotte, 55MPH in charlote).
In my '85, I also got about 35MPG on 55MPH country roads, frequently using passing zones on the cars that drive 40-45MPH reguardless of the speed limit. I made a lot of fun passes, realy enjoyed the roads.
