"the late Herm Kohnke" ???????

pre-detonation ??? no such thing. pre-igntion and detonation which are 2 different animals.

The main problem I see with driving at 65mph is not the driving part, but, the stopping part. [ even with perfect brakes] That said anyone can operate their vehicle any way they wish. Over the years some say they drive/cruise at 65 and others say they run theirs at WOT in all gears until they reach the speed they want. To each their own.
