Re: speed warning speedo/dash

what were they actually used for? To keep someone younger from going over a certain speed? Does it buzz the entire time you are over the set speed or does it just buzz when you hit it? and why are they so cool?

well, I personally think they are cool because of the rarity and the fragility of it's mechanism. guess that's the engineer in me.

the buzzer would activate when you reached the set speed and would continue until your speed dropped below that set speed.
