Jim,

You learned what the rest of us have while attempting to discern while performing coast downs.

It's really difficult without substantial time and patience.

When I get around to programming a microcontroller to read either the speed sensor or add my own to the car, then I will make another attempt at serious coast down testing.

Jim.
