I remember them saying when they took the macca f1 up to topspeed that they could have dialed out any toe in/out at the front to reduce friction. Couple of basics like that would more than likely get you your 1mph. I don't know how they would effect the graph and tbh I really like the fact people are able to forecast speeds based on bhp and acceleration curves however every little bit helps. Have you had any thoughts about when you would like to go back and try again?

I often think a cold morning is best as the air temps are idle, however, I think that a warmer day has thinner air (could be utter tosh, im trying to think of logic behind that statement) and that means higher air temps but lower resistance againsnt the body work.

Hmm...

1mph to go!

good luck
