I have done silly speeds when younger, my Sunbeam had a hot cam and the highest gearing available and I took it right off the clock into valve bounce territory and still couldn't keep up with a big car at warp factor 3.

Yes I had a push rod lump up well over 7000rpm.

Bikes I am not saying!

I did find with the Carlton that a clogged fuel filter makes a big difference to performance
