Default Mph Variables

I know there's a ton of variables that can affect your mph but I'm scratching my head a bit on this one.

8/21/15
6.52@107.6mph, 1.52 60ft

9/3/15
6.56@106.7mph, 1.53 60ft.

The car is consistent but I wonder where I lost the 1mph. The oat was a bit cooler than my run 2 weeks ago tho similar, like 75* or so. Can a change in da be enough for 1mph? Trach prep past the 60ft? I felt a bit more wheel hop. Am I reading to much into it? (Knowing me yes) Only difference was an oil change, same weight 15w40.

2002 coupe, LS3 w/vortech, 11psi 700rwhp
3600lbs full weight full tank with me in it

Yes.

Don't worry about those small variances.
