Gerald,
Sadly, I have a few time slips that have a higher MPH at the 1/8 than at the 1/4. Where the hell is 4th gear on these things?

8.39 12.819 1.528
8.77 13.159 1.500
Average = 1.525
std. dev. = .012
This seems to work for me and for others. Even into the 9's.
PS. Those high 12's (and a 13, doh!) were for research purposes only!
