That doesnt make sense with the 3mph difference whethor you hit the rev limit or not cause your 2 runs were very consistent with each other.

I can understand if your et's or 60fts differed but thats not the case. Very interesting to see that. It makes me almost want to question the timers or trap monitors there.

What track did you run at?

Stock clutch? Were you smelling it pretty bad? I'm wondering if some extra rpms weren't from the stocker slipping is why I ask.

Hmm.. O.K., well, that's good at least. Just trying to elminate some possiblities. I have also seen consistent cars be off a few mph when they ran into a head wind. It's pretty crazy the things that can make a difference.
