These are the nitro increments as observed (noted by hand) from 1 to A, km/h, with TK: Exhs:  1.0  1.2  1.5  1.3  2.4  2.5  2.5  2.4  3.8  2.8  (total 21.4)
 * Susp:  1.0  1.3  1.5  1.2  2.5  2.4  2.5  2.5  3.7  2.8  (total 21.4)

It's interesting to note how your 0405 to 0406 or 0505 example fits the sequences. Also, back to the original question, we can clearly see how 000A happens to be faster than 0505: the first half of each sequence above amounts to only about 1/3 of the total 21.4.
