In the Australian state of Victoria you get booked for being 2kph over the speed limit. In general (nation wide) we used to have a 10% leeway to account for discrepancies in speedometers, but that has been largely done away with down here.

Speeding fines here in my own state is 0~10 over is 1 demerit (out of 12) and a $350 fine.

I'm having far more fun simply learning how to drive the car with the power it has and how to translate that to being faster as time goes by. Simply being smoother with inputs and finding that magical moment when you take a corner at just the right speed and graceful angle that makes the car fell like its on rails. My god what a cathartic experience this car is to me.
