hey ray,

like the new signature ;-)

anyway. i did a drive test with OD off and in top gear which
ought to be 1.00 . the tach read 3610 and the speedometer
was 80 mph. my rear tire diameter is 28" left-side to right-side.
 ( i'm not sure how to measure for calculations, left to right or
top to bottom )

well i came up with 3.76 for the ratio. can that be right?
