I agree with Unit (speedo being optimistic)...You need take in account of speedometer error. Most road tests that I've read about that measure actual speed vs indicated speed usually show a 1-3 mph difference at 60 mph. I imagine there would be a greater amount of error from the speedo reading at speeds of 130+.
