Timing between old and new version? 30 or 60?

Okay, so I think others have talked about this before, but I can't seem to find the answer.

I took the old version on July 11th, and wasn't super stoked about the scores, so I am going to take my chances with the new version, and I planned on taking it September 8th (the last day to be in the first batch of scores to go out).

However, I'm worried if that is enough time. For the old test, you could take it once every calendar month, but for the revised version, it says only once every 60 days. So, does that mean I have to wait 60 days from July 11th, even though that was the old version? I don't want to take the new test and not have it count. September 8th is like exactly 60 days, so I could wait one more day if I wanted to, but I was really wanting to have my scores out first. Does anyone know the answer, or have called ETS about this?

What I would do if I wasn't happy with my score. Take it again aug. 1 and if I'm still not happy take the new one in October plenty of time to send it in.

From what I understand you can still write the GRE once every calendar month until you've written the new test, which will then require a 60 day wait until you book another revised test. The wait only applies to between revised GRE dates, not between an old test and your first new test. September 8th is fine.
