And of course don't speed - speeding is bad m'kay.


Seb is right before you take to the track check the speed rating on your tyres... Don't be doing 200+ on rubbers that are rated at 180 max... if there is a weakness you risk a blowout, at low speeds a blow out is a nasty surprise... and I doubt they're any more fun at top speed.

Would be a pain having to get pulled out of the graveltrap by the crane..

Camskill do them, they're also available on ebay. they convert your speedo readout to mph though.

There are more expensive options available that don't convert your speed.

I believe some delimiters are installed in line with the gearbox speed sensor.

Didn't your Apexi Neo delimit the car Dan, and that was in the cabin.

I reckon Optical's one does too, she had some Apexi yoke stuck to the ashtray when she bought it.

if you want something out of sight get a SLD (speed limit defeter) but the point of the RSM is to display,

The RSM isn't as easy to read as a standard analogue clock IMO, but thanks for clearing that much up!
