going the wrong speed
hi peeps. ive got an inverter on my scooby too convert from km/ph to m/ph but i dont think its set up right as it seems im travelling faster than what my speedo is saying to me, ie i may be going 35/40when it says 30. anyone know how i could sort this out???
i have the standard 16" gold alloys with 205/50/16 tyres so i wouldnt think the wheels are the cause. any help would be great!!

Can you borrow a gps unit (satnav, speed camera warner etc) to check your speeds?
They work well for constant speed testing but not so good for acceleration / deceleration as they only update one a second.
