I have been driving this restoration of a '59 TR3A for five months
total, counting three last season, every day to work when it doesn't
rain.  Most of my drive is down Route 3A, a winding, someone trafficky
road, but when I hit I-93, I loose the reins, hit the throttle, a
vroom to Concord.

I've been driving using the tach in 4th gear OD winding about 3800 RPM.

Uhm...  

I just fixed the speedometer.

Is 3800 RPM in 4th OD REALLY 85 miles per hour?

Tell me no because I didn't have sense enough to be scared before....
