Bob, This was Road & Track's way of estimating a cruising speed which would 
give reasonable life-expectancy (i.e.  time between major orverhauls) for an 
engine.  It was probably more valid for the older, long-stroke engines such as 
the MG XPAG/XPEG than it would be for modern short-stroke/over-square engines.  
I don't think that R&T routinely cites it any longer.

Carl Fritz
