Cast bar is not accurate

When I cast Incinerate an a dummy target I am able to cast next incinerate when 60 - 70 % of the cast bar (yellow) is used. The blue bar is just a little bit further.
My latenzy is around 70 ms and I have approximently 65 FPS.
Can I change the castbar so it is more accurate? I tried the standard WoW castbar and it had the same "problem".

The data the cast bar shows is *exactly* the data that Blizz is feeding back. The blue bar is your cast bar plus latency which is why it is a little ahead. I cannot give you a reason why the bar is "inaccurate" -- the data is coming straight from the Blizz server and I'm just displaying it.

Since Regel said it also happened to to standard blizz cast bar not much to be done.

Might be a side effect of the new spell queuing system they implemented in 4.01. They're still working on that.
