Private runway
Lol - indeed.
I turned off said runway to another said runway before he had a chance to overtake me back.
TTRS & V50
Lmao. Ledge.
yes speedo figures
I know they wont be 100% accurate but still, over 10mph difference is too much to put down to speedos between 2 of the same cars.
Even without the speedo, i can tell its not travelling as fast.
Gearbox ratios maybe?
Edit
not the gearbox as the cup doesn't rev out in top gear, the ph1 did
The cup is definitely down on power....

On the flat in low winds they will generally just about touch 140gps. Slightly more or slightly less depending on conditions. 135 indicated is probably about 130 or less, so it does sound a bit slow.
Was this just one 'test'? A strong head wind and/or a slight incline will kill them and could easily sap 10mph.

yes, absolutely.
2 attempts and 135 was max.
Ill just put it down to my suspicion that ph1's were put together better.

Bad map? If you have a flat spot in the rev range you wont really know till the engine is under hard load ie 135 lol
NEVER take the speedo figure,
every car is different and each car with not be the same each time to get to those speeds,
so on tow occassion, you might have done 120 on attemp 1 and 122 on attemp two,
get a PROPER timing gear, trust me you will never beleive a speedo again
unless your down the pub of course

Has it been serviced recently?...I think when it has been mapped the limiter has been lowered because they probably saw no point it having high revs when the power drops off.

seems strange to have the limiter/power bought down the rev range for a "rev happy" block :S
I cant see how you guys can say that 7,000+ is a waste of time, in 1st,2nd & 3rd mine pulls really well till just shy of 7,500 & literally just as you notice the power tail off you hit the limiter.. guess it could be to do with the mods but then again i'm still runnig standard cams/timming etc..
