Wonderful!
Get me the data and I'll add it to the chart.
This is not direction, just a suggestion but my typical testing protocol:
- warm-up - it takes about 20 minutes to include tires and transmission
- get up to speed holding cruise control - let everything settle out
- reset trip-meter - starts the 'run'
- ~10 miles - long enough the trip meter is stable
- record results - or remember
- pull-off and turn around
- same protocol in reverse direction
- average the two runs
It isn't a perfect protocol but it is 'good enough' for our purposes. <GRINS>
FYI, I like to map speeds from 15-20 mph up to 80 mph for my whole vehicle charts. Then I also like to do a series of 'hill climb' tests. But these are very sophisticated techniques needed for vehicle modeling.
