The 99 seconds is a bit confusing, are you sure you have the number right?

Either way 9 minutes in 6 hours is 0.25% not much of a variance.....
What he is Also forgetting is that the xu1 recorded those figures in 1972 not 1971, so no relevance, so to the fact that it's the top speed everyone should be focusing on, not lap times...
As you said flappist, 9mins in 6 hours is not much, any factors at the time could have made that discrepency.
