The car felt like it was velcroed to the track and was much easier to compensate when I missed the line in certain trouble spots on the track. When you get into the lower turn motors there's a lot more "brute force" even when you adjust the radio/esc settings to mellow it out a bit. If I had my 10.5 or 13.5 with me I would have ended up with one of those in there and killed a bunch of the boost. Just my opinion but sometimes you need to slow down in order to speed up.
Totally agree, i found i drive more consistent with 17.5t boosted, and my 13.5t is about the limit for "steady" laps. Unless your just after some laps in a carpark or out in the field thats fine, but on the track it becomes uncontrollable.
