I feel if you just peg down all you are doing is draining the battery and heating the motor. More so in 21.5 and 17.5. Does anyone else agree and have some tips?
The time spent at such low RPM is small, drive as hard and as smooth as you can to get better lap times, and worry about heat in the pits instead of on the drivers stand.
