Tim;  SERA rules take precendence over AMA rules.  SERA rules (last time I checked) state that milage will be posted every whole mile.  1, 2, 3, 23, 46, etc.  Even that rule is sometimes broken as clubs will put milages on 3.8, 4.8, 5.8, etc, in a 20mph section if the possibles fall on whole miles.
     When I used the term "you" I did not mean you personally, but was addressing the readers at large.
     Riding hot at 18mph is extremely hazardous as the possibles are every .3 mile and if the club milage is not spot on with your odo you can find yourself unexpectedly in the middle of a check.  Again, I like to use the "duck and cover" technique.  I might add that comparators are not as good as a good old fashioned clock and rollchart for covert operations.  
     11.4 change to 12 mph.  There is absolutely no reason to run hot in a 12 mph section.  
In fact I personally believe that 12mph should not be allowed.  It is in poor taste IMO.  .2 tenths is too precise.  A few years back we allowed the club milage to be off as much as .1 mile.  At 12 mph a club could (at that time) have checks @  11.4,  and 11.6, in the [B]SAME SPOT[/B]  and they would both be legal!  :eek: 
     I would recommend riding in the middle of your minute and try to hit a tiebreaker on 30 seconds.
