If you do over 160mph(or somewhere round that speed) the gatso wont get you as you are going too quick for it. Don't know if that helps anyone.

Too quick in which sense?

Is it too fast for the radar detector to react and detect an offence taking place?

Or is the speed so fast that the offender is out of the cameras zone, when the second picture is taken by the gatso, to calculate the speed of the vehicle?

I think it's about 172mph.

Too fast to be detected.

I can't see too many people doing 172mph along St Johns Road here, even though it is quite a long, wide road

It wont even take a picture. I think its actually about 137mph for gatsos. They did a test on Top Gear once.
