Default help me analyze my time slips. mph is gone.

Drove the car to the track today. about an hour and 15 minute drive nearly all highway. i have noticed the last few times at the track that my mph drops 3 mph or more from my first pass of the day to the second and beyond. the tire psi is within 2 psi. is it possible the tranny fluid is getting so hot that i loose mph? my 1/8th mile MPH are nearly dead on as well. my 1st and 2nd runs were within 5 minutes of each other.

Built Art Carr 4L60e
B&M tranny cooler
Yank ST4000 convertor
28x9 et drags (at 20 psi, otherwise i slow down!)

My ETs are dead consistent only varying a few hundredths of a second.

tried to cool the car off waiting nearly an hour. only gained 1 mph back up.

here are all four passes of the day. http://www.revxtreme.com/gallery/alb...4-16%20BMP.JPG
