Granatelli Motorsports is right...
I would like to send my gauge cluster in soon.
Nothing like having someone look at your gauges and say "200MPH...oh ****"

Since when is the top speed shown on a speedo an advertisement or indication of how fast your car can ACTUALLY go?

ok, well it SHOULD be....155mph is much more reasonable than 200mph for these cars, BUT like I said before I think that they are cool looking, and if I had some extra cash to do nothing with I would not mind picking one up for myself....

I dont think theres anything stopping any good h/c car from doing around 180. thats close enough to 200 to warrant the speedo to me. i know i can peg mine in no time at all.
