I think it's under OBDII menu in which by pressing the odometer reset for 10sec or so, and it'll lead to the menu.

LOL and it's showing less than 15L consumption at almost 270km/h

Interesting to see the fact that the engine still has the resources, from the position of the rev counter but the battle with the friction is probably greater. Not to shabby for an oil burner though.

BTW: Can anyone post the step-by-step procedures to get that menu with the real speed? Thanx.

Did he take off the top speed limiter? According to my calculations, he's doing ~166mph, roughly 11mph above the top speed limiter.
