Well if it is anything similar, I hit about 150 - 155km/h at rev limiter (bit higher in the the 75, 6,800rpm or so for some reason) in my standard 75 TS. Won't be the same but might be close.

How about that IPL...
Saw some of the first game, looks pretty good.
Any comments from the Aussies or South Africans?

It's very fun, if we didn't have these roundabouts I'd surely go mad for lack of challenge and fun on the roads.

I lost my licence for six months when I first started driving. I was in my first car (YELLOW PEUGEOT 504 SEDAN) and was driving side-by-side a friend in his Honda Prelude at 120km/h in an 80 zone.
