Good question about stability of a 1200 compared to a 1600, I haven't much
experience with 1200's. However, thinking about those sort of speeds, a
rear wing might keep the rear end down. I'm also wondering if a front
spoiler might be a throught, with all that air rushing underneath the car,
that might take some weight off the front wheels too.
As for clocking your speed, I'm making some enquiries at work 4 you now.
It's not officially my area, but I'll ask if i can venture over.
