[Roadsters] Passed 100mph for the first time!

You talk like you're some kind of guage "expert".? Where do you "get off" talkin' like that.



Just my two cents.

You would actually be surprised at how accurate these gauges were when new and 
how accurate they can become?once they are repaired properly.?The problem starts 
when?we mix different size wheels and tires or?substitute the wrong cables to 
drive them. (And from there is gets worse through the?mutlitude of 
attempted?repairs performed on the kitchen table) Believe it or not, they still 
use the very same style mechanical tachometer on virtually all small aircraft as 
are used in our cars and I have seen them last well over 30 years.?Most of our 
cars are?over 40 years old so it's not?a stretch so say they may need a little 
attention but if done correctly, you will probably only need it done once.

The factory tach is at least as inaccurate as the speedo if not more.

  Best description of the gauges in these great little cars is "idiot lights
that wave at you".
