Man what is your engineer doing ? He should be telling the RTA (spellcheck says RAT) that the vehicle is X weight and X horsepower and 100 kph should be sufficient. The RTA doesn't like ICV's and would prefer to be informed as to what should meet the specifications. In my case they wouldn't accept that a set of brakes from a two ton car wouldn't stop a 1/2 ton vehicle. My engineer wrote a ten page report on the brake specs and performance and the RTA agreed. The design rules are interpretable...give it a go....good luck and best wishes.
