From what I can tell, one of the drivers who owns the track has a setup that is superb in the torque department and the same basically as my top end. His level of torque he can generate is like jawdropping compared to what the next fast guy can do.

I basically went as close to the FDR as I could as when was higher up, I was topping out wayyy before everyone else around the track. Maybe the latest software and playing with physical motor timing will affect this in the manner I want?
Yes...I meant the phyical timing "notch" that is on the motor itself...
My theory is...always start low, and climb up....if you are starting @ 4.2 final drive already, where else you can go if you don't like that feeling when 4.2 is the limit under USVTA rule...

And yes...software, hardware both play a hugh part on this electric TC racing...hugh.
