I've always wondered where the 200 mph number came from (although I have my idea I read somewhere, years ago, that Ken Rand was getting 212mph TAS at high altitude with the turbo. I'm sure the boost had to be very high and the 2100 screaming at some outrageous rpm. Bet a constant speed prop would really kick a KR into hyperspeed. Just my 2 cents
