Up to 85 MPH then Chickened Out !!

[old_n_notpastityet]

Went for an outing to Attingham Park along the M54.Speedo up to 85 with lips flappin in the wind ! and then remembered how close my Arse was to the Tarmac and quickly backed off the pedal ,we have to do it don't we !!.Still enjoyed the buzz though but won't bother again. Happy at 55/60.

He he. My son assures me that my roadster will do 85 MPH but I have no intention of finding out. I will do 70 to get out of trouble then its back to 60-65 where it is comfortable.

Is everything in the mirror a blur at 80 and above, I cannot see anything in my mirror at that speed, something starts vibrating but what ? I tend to think its the general lack of Aerodynamics ?? good fun though !

It's your teeth vibrating, filtering out the flies.

Lack of the aero thingy and the teeth thingy I think, but the flies can taste quite good if you get enuff of em lol . But the Marlin is the best fun car I have ever had and we love it. Everybody else does seem to love it as well, peeps are always admiring the old thing ( Marlin that is !! ) and taking snapshots. Luvly Jubbly
