But you don't really start to get the 'punch' until past there. So many times I've found myself doing a 0-60 from a junction onto an NSL road, and within ~7 seconds drop it into 5th/6th without realising the speedo says 80+.TBH mine isn't too bad, even on 50 profiles its only 3% out IIRCNot that the speedo will be accurate lol, but haven't used the sat nav to compare in the '6.
