Darin,
I love your tenacious testing.

Do you keep track of the weight of the car during these coast down tests? Mass in motion

My Solectria weights the same all the time. I drive the same roads a lot and have glide points to stop signs (traffic permitting). The car can do this with amazing repetition and weight differences are noticeable, passengers and other cargo. So is tire pressure and a 4 wheel alignment.

Anyhow, I thought for your records if your not already doing so you might want to record fuel level and other things that might increase or decrease the weight if you want to compare these tests over time.

Just a thought.

Keep the mods coming.
