On take off, c172. W/ a 160 hp engine only got to 2200-2400 rpm from sea level airport. By time we reached 2500-2750f ft rpm had risen to 2500, never reaching near red line of 2700 rpm. Next take off was the same, never getting close to red line. Static run up on the ground gave max rpm of 2200- 2400 rpm. What actions should be taken? Some have told me this is normal, I remember more power on takeoff, and I'm concerned.
