Today I calibrated my ScanGauge II (+4%) and since it was a calm day wind wise I headed over to what passes for a level stretch around here (you can see the difference depending on direction). I used the current trip feature to get an average for the whole stretch, resetting it once up to speed. I wanted to go all the way from 35 mph to 75 mph (all in top gear), but the short test area made getting up to speed quickly enough difficult, once I got up to 70. Someone more comfortable in high speed turns no doubt could do better, entering the straight area with more momentum. Unfortunately, it started raining soon after I began the second set of runs, but here's what I have so far. Have to go back again sometime, but since I have modifications in the works I guess it'll most likely mean starting over. Surprisingly high economy at 35 mph. Makes me suspicious.
