Yes, the mechanical tacho is not in operation. I have an electrical one
on the steering column. The old one would go round anyway, as I use to
change at 8000rpm and have the absolute mental limit at 8500.
Yes, on the last lap I made a a bit longer trip... I braked a bit too
late and didn't want to risk anything, so I used the safety road. Most
embarrassing would have been be stucking on the gravel trap between the
track and safety road.

Jari
