Default speedometer needle acting wierd

so the other night i was beating my car around town and when i started driving normally i noticed that when i leave it in gear and take my foot off the gas my speedometer needle goes down but like it ticks as it drops i never noticed this before its quite subtle i had to like stare at it to really notice it. also when i try to hold a constant steady speed the needle kind of flutters up n down very slightly and doesnt stay put. again i dont know if it always did this or its just occuring but im also concerned if there is a problem such as a speed sensor going bad? ecu? clutch slipping? anyone ever notice this or experiance this? thanks

ok well i do have a s4 act clutch and a s1 comp so maybe im just gettin worked up for nothing due to the response from lil sparky saying she noticed the same thing with her s1 ecu. but i also now notice it when i am driving slow slightly accelerating and still while decelerating in gear at all MPH's it does it but like i sad very slight hardly noticeable unless staring at it. i am thinking i may have just never noticed it cus i always had to pay attention to driving lol spercially with the way i drive every once in awhile.
