Test cycle #2 :
- Fully open throttle to reach speed of 80 km/hr.
- Close throttle ’til speed drops to 60 km/hr.
- Fully open throttle again to reach speed of 80 km/hr.

Test cycle #3 :
- Fully open throttle to reach speed of 80 km/hr.
- Close throttle ’til speed drops to 70 km/hr.
- Fully open throttle again to reach speed of 80 km/hr.

What did it record?
