[quote][i]Originally posted by Paul_J[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by bradfincham[/i] as i said before, bad maths, just figured a quick way to sort it, roughly 15% difference then! What the fuck is everyones problem, im just trying to find out more about how inaccurate my dials are etc and on higher powered cars! [/quote] but what I'm saying mate... Is Firstly A) the speedo is not 15% inacurate all the time... Its like a sliding scale. Gets more inacurate the faster you go. So at 50 mph I'm not saying it'll be 15% inaccurate, it'll be less. It's generally as speeds get fast enough that make an effect against the tyres. If you've ever seen a Drag car do a burn out before going down the drag strip, watch as they spin their tyres up how much bigger they get in size!!!! ... imagine this as a measurement on the speedo and thus think about what effect it would make on the accuracy! I'm also not saying all cars are 15% inacurate over 100 mph... yours may only be 10% or less, or more... [/quote]
