Good one 69DR. Very handy.;46

Ok I changed the gear to a 19 tooth as per the calculations. Speed felt better but still didn't feel right. So Bill came over and a few of the other lads and we put the GPS in and checked it. Sure enough 10klm out. Had to have the speedo at 70 to be doing 60. It's got me beat.

I'm going up to a 20 tooth to see what happens. :b4

Well I went up to a 21 tooth gear and checked it with Bills GPS. Almost, but not quite right. Have ordered a 22 tooth gear [grey] from Chromie and will try that.

So I'll need ya GPS for another day or two Bill if that's OK?

Cam get someone to go in front of you with a "NEW" car
get them to reach 60klms and follow them in your Corvette
Simply get them to put their hazzard lights on for a few seconds when they reach the correct speed then quickly check your speedo
When all is done flash your lights so they know to return to the garage/workshop.;27

Did you use the wrong smileyAGAIN :b2 ;39

The GPS is pretty accurate but I will check it that way as well to be double sure.

Thanks;42
