The greater Lift and Overlap on a race Camshaft, causes poor Fuel atomization low speeds and consequently the intake system will load up with excess fuel. The "Blipping" is to help the Engine clear this out.

Our small R/C Nitro Engines have the exact same problem at idle with the excess fuel. Thus the "Blipping" again.
