Remember, NASCAR cars don't have speedos, the drivers calculate speed by the RPM's and gears. If it's good enough for NASCAR it should work for us.

You can take into account rolling friction, wind resistance and the amount of dust on the dashboard, but the diffrence between 170 and 180 mph isn't all that much. Nice run!
