nah not one handed at that speed, had a passenger taking the shot. Car will go alot faster then that if the straight was longer, and i had more trust in a 1971 mini holding together, but it was still pulling hard even at that speed.

speedo is alittle out, maybe 10kph faster then it should be, but the odemeter pin stopped the needle moving any further :D

i am astounded by the lack of blurriness in that picture, given the inherent instability of the velocity of which the occupants were travelling, especially considering the type of vehicle (in this case one leyland mini) in which said occupants were travelling at such velocity has a reputation for having suspension qualities over rough surfaces normally associated with vehicles with lesser suspension systems such as go karts.

the camera used to capture the scene in question must have extensive anti blur features and or the photographer must have been inordinarily and extrordinarily steady while taking the photograph.

or your speedo is broken.

anyway, its common knowledge everything gets blurry at that speed or when you press the nos button. Just look at fast and the furious.
