@ Marlfox87 You are right in the fact that there is no conclusive proof that gwin was faster on the 29er but there was also none that he would have been faster or equal speed on a 26. Different riders are also incomparable as power outputs and fitness(time to produce that power) varies as does a riders ability to carry speed etc. Therefore No conclusions about which bike was actually faster can be drawn from comparing riders or from the times. the only true way to tell is for each individual rider and that would be to do a number of runs on each bike over a long period of time (reduce rider fatique effects) and average the results. this woul also need to be done on a rider by rider basis.

Invalid statement as the rider that won by a mila second may not have won on a different sized wheel...

The only modifications they make are to the outside of the hub so that it take the extra chain ring that isnt need when it is used as a hub.

The Drivetrain on these things is pretty much bullet proof from what I've seen and heard from people who ride them. Initialy there was problems with the standard shifters not handling DH abuse but the modified SRAM handles that and I've seen them with sub 36lb build.
