Yeah I do.  Unless there's another contradictory mention of the 0.74 as max speed I just have "high cruising speed".

Great.  Now I'm going to be tearing my hair out trying to find the source of that quote.  >:(

It mentions it can go faster, but says it's not sustainable and doesn't say by how much.

My car mechanic will never give me a straight answer either.

Much of the CMTM is reprinted from the original Dark Horse UK magazine articles, right? Was it from there?

The car manufacturer does, though.

Beats me.  Maybe it was from a wiki or someone else "cited" it in an old forum post somewhere else and I took it at face value, but I'm usually more careful than that.  Just look at all the Google results that say the same thing, essentially word for word:

Hey man, I'm just glad that there are enough nerds out here to passionately debate the hypothetical top speeds of a fictional ship from a movie sequel made over a third of a century ago. I say ooh-f**kin'-rah. Sorry for hijacking the thread, RipleyC8!
