3.6 is a good starting point and play with timing to get where you need for now. Going to 3.7 or 3.8 will make the chassis too snappy unless you know you have great traction.
Over revving will not help, so try 3.6 and use the torque available first.
Always a starting from what we have experienced here.

Most of the guys (running 17.5T stock class) in my local track are running HobbyWing's Bandit 17.5T motor, which is also an outlaw motor but with lesser rpm (i.e. 17.5T of 2300kV) than the Team Powers Plutonium v2 17.5T 2400kW. I'm just thinking that the speed running on a 40 meter straight path will be decreased significantly by changing my FDR to 3.6 or 3.5 with default 0 degree timing on the motor, as my current FDR is 3.38. Is there any good way to have a higher acceleration after exiting from corners and at the same time, the car will still be fast when running on a straight path? Thank you guys.
