Hopefully someone can help a tad with tuning. Fairly new to SC racing, but have a few years of bashing under my belt.

I have a viper 10.5/esc combo. Recently I've been racing against the really fast guys running everything from 8.5-13.5 mod (mostly SC10s, which is what I run and the truck set ups are comparable) and I can keep up on the straits and through the corners without much trouble, but there is one sharp corner that leads into a double, and I seem to have trouble getting enough bump in time to clear it consistently. Track is high traction, medium sized and I was running 24/78, but recently started having climbing temps when they changed the track a bit, so I moved to 18/87 (stock). Same results with both gearing though. I have not played much with the settings outside the braking and run profile 2 and 8.

Can anyone offer up a suggestion on where to start with tuning the esc and/or gearing suggestions, so I can give these tekin guys a little more pressure.

Thanks in advance. And I searched, but there isn't much info here or on Viper's site concerning the 10.5.
