What size is the track ?
How much drop in lap times are you seeing in the last min compared to the first min ?
It's been over a year since we ran 17.5 boosted here, but when we did, I found 17.5 worked better with more gear, and a little less boost, & less endbell timing, for a consistent 8m run.
17.5 have very little torque on 3.7v, giving up a bit in the 1st min, was generally rewarded with a stronger run overall.
