1. Is this thread going to turn into a "who went the fastest while taking a picture of their speedometer?"
2. Vik79: How do we know that wasn't from the needle test sweep??? Considering your clock says 3:23am. Not to mention the fact that there is a speed limiter. Just curious

4RINGS has the digital readout, so its gotta be right. It's got both the needle and the digital readout to confirm. Vik's doesn't have the digital speed readout, thats why i thought it could be the test sweep.

The fix was a new insttrument cluster. Not my car unfortunately :(
I bought into it at first when the owner first showed me the pic. Then I thought... If the R8 has an aerodynamic drag restricted top speed of 186 mph, a less aerodynamic S5 with less power is not possible to reach 200 mph, even without the governer

Re: Thought 1...
No intention to see who could drive the fastest. Just thought it was funny that the song popped up at a time when the conditions were right to push the car a little.
