Hey now On the way back from Binghamton, NY, I had my '77 pop-top Westy cruising at 80-85 on level roads. At that speed the aerodynamics of the bus make driving more interesting, but certainly less certain. I took it down to about 75 and had a better time of it. Can't hardly hear the CD player at these speeds! TTFN Jay Dave Kautz said: > > Sean, > > My '74 Westy <with aerodynamic handicap pop-top> has done 77 mph on > flat ground with no apparent wind.
