Highcharts Gauge

Question

I'm using highcharts and i'd like to show a big gauge(500x500px). Resizing the gauge was quite easy, but the small block with the value in it doesn't resize. How can I make that small block bigger?

Thanks for the help!

$(function () {

$('#container').highcharts({

    chart: {

        plotBackgroundColor: null,
        plotBackgroundImage: null,

try this by replacing series (whole object) with:

series: [{
            name: 'Speed',
            data: [80],
            tooltip: {
                valueSuffix: ' km/h'
            },
            dataLabels: {
                    enabled: true,
                    style: {
                        //fontWeight:'bold',
                        fontSize: '22px'
                    }
                }
        }]

Of course, you can adjust the font size as you want
