When making a car video, which do you think would be cooler?

A shaky view of a high performance speedometer reading 150MPH+ or a really shaky (but still legible) video of an older stock speedometer reading the equivalent of 150+ MPH (I.E. off the scale/banging on the zero etc.)
I'm just toying with ideas for a music video I would like to make of my car if I can find a safe area suitable for high rates of speed (obviously not 150mph but still up there) while being relatively deserted.

    This^

    Or you could pull the speedo apart, carefully take the needle off and stick it at the 150 mark and do 50mph giving one the illusion of neck snapping speeds.:D

    I was thinking of changing my speedometer gear so that it reads like 30 over what I'm really driving, but that might work out a bit better. I just don't want to destroy it by accident.

    Change the 2 driving tyres to really low pro. That should give you an over clocked speedo reading.
    What sorta car is it?

    Yep. Lots of 351s, a few 460s and a guy who crammed a 557 under the hood of one.

    They came with a choice of a 2.3L 4 cylinder, a 2.8L V6 and a 302 V8. (Random tidbit: The 78 King Cobra was the first Mustang to use the 5.0 insignia)

    Nope, its just a 4 cylinder. The big carb throws people off.

    Yeah, at some point I was to do a blowthrough carb setup, but I have too many other side projects to finish before I can even think about it.
