I am going to assume you are running asphalt on a fairly large track?

The GTB2 or Pulse may suit your needs better.

We ran about a 3.4 at 45 deg timing with a GTB2 this summer at Leisure Hours with the Premium Ballistic and motor temps were around 180 (to high :-)). Straight away was 175'

The standard Ballistic stator is going to want more gear and less timing with the stock 12.3 rotor. I would start at probably a 3.5-6 fdr with 35-40 deg of timing and go from there.

The ultra low and high rpm are very similar, and seem to work best with the 12.5 rotor and at around the same fdr and timing to start.

On carpet with an 80' straight, 3.88 FDR and 40deg of timing for the Vulcan Spec
