look at the speedo needle!
It goes back round to the needle stop, I have done that a few times in various cars. I have also had some vauxhalls revving round to the handbrake light! lol
not got a tech spec on it, it was up on migweb a t year or so ago. |

erm the only needle you can see is the speedo needle!
The revs you can only tell by the digi display.
Thats the best bit about the vid, the way the speedo needle jumps as it wheelspins up to!
Nah a few stock novas and astras I have had touch the handbrake light, only about 7500rpm bu a lot for a vauxhall.
Got a jag rev counter ages ago to touch made in england that was on the rev counter |

well you are aware a rev counter goes down when you change gear, that should have given it away! You can clearly see the numbers on it a few times. |
