Yeah its tough to determine the grade of the road..i have done 10+ runs though on what I perceived to be flat roads and all are very close..I thought 4.5 was good as well, but seeing the posts from people running the procede makes me wonder how they are all getting better times with similar, or less mods..

The slope of the road has a lot to with the times and that's why a Vbox is a great measuring device.

For example, Divexxtreme has a list of 60-130 times and you need to send the Vbox run to him for analysis. He looks at the elevetion drop and if you are more than 3% grade then you don't make the list.

All this said and done, I personally think that 4.5 is a great time.
Some use the speed sensor to calculate their acceleration results but i did that and I had a 60-100 in 2.7 seconds LOL! So, I know that's not accurate.
