for reliable comparisons, i think wheels and motor would be your best bets. Those guys have reasonable driving skill - probably better than larry at 'larry's awesome FPV website'.

In saying that, even those times come under attack as being slow, or unreasonably fast. I look at published times a bit like dyno figures - take em with a grain of salt (is that the saying!??)
