When they did the LPE 650 test, there's a shot somewhere of the speedo beyond pegged. May have been done in Kmph just to get the shot, but its still cool to see

I wanna use the 300 speedmeter as Km/h not Mph/h ... I already found the regular speedmeter for the C5 .. they sell it over sea's in countries that go with km/h .. also they do in Canada but I didn't find the Z06 300 speedmeter .. even in canada they have it 200 .. that gauge pic was taken from a 427CID Lingenfelter Twin Turbo Corvette .. and still I coundn't find that gauge with Lingenfelter.
