You would think, but, actually, no.  They may have it, but it isn't

After years - literally YEARS - of searching, I found information that 
served my purposes.

This will get you from 0 km/hr to 60 km/hr

This will get you from 50 km/hr to 140 km/hr

The first, as you might have guess, is from Japan.  The second is from
