How fast will an MGB go?

Actually only about 1/2 that. Terminal velocity in freefall of an object like an MGB is around 120 mph.

OK! now we know that an MGB is faster on the ground than flying LOL That is great Jim.

If it weren't for that pesky drag, my car would actually do 243 mph at 6,000 in 6th gear and a dropped object would continue to accelerate at 16'/sec/sec

It is 32'/sec/sec - my bad. It's hell getting old.

Or 10m/sec/sec.
See how nice and easy metric is!
