You will hit a ban on your licence soon, 101 is not big or clever and not welcome on this forum

Pointless thread tbh, and you will probably get slated for saying you did 101mph (assuming you were on public roads)
The clocks are never accurate at them sort of speeds anyway so you can never really tell unless done by a dyno test.

Glad your not doing those speeds on the motorway as it would be illegal and very stooped. Most I have had out of a 1.1 is just over 160mph and that put the shits up me (not saxo )

Really not worth it (a) on public roads and (b) in a 1.1 Saxo.
Leave it for the track/airstrip and when you have a more suitable car buddy.
