If i keep the temps down, the final 2 mins are great, but performance has been a little low for the first 6 mins, so i cant make up the ground. In the final at our last race, i went with performance, made my way to second, and in the final 2 mins, made the car as wide as possible

Was this on a wide open high speed track, or a tight track, what size racing surface.
Unless it's wide open, I go for a punchy infield setup, and give away a bit of top end, keeps the temps cooler, with a lot less fade.
At iic last year I had to re-think things, as that track was WFO.
There, you geared tall, and just tried to roll the car as efficiently as possible thru the infield.
But for club racing it's different.
