The Prez is spot on with his info.

All the testing that the team and myself have done have come to those conclusions and statements.

Motor timing is right now and all the time, once set it cannot be adjusted.

Timing boost is the midrange and comes in after a few feet, this is your midrange timing setup.

Turbo is the top end. This comes on hard as the car is spooling out and torque is no longer a viable means to continue acceleration.

The gearing to take advantage of this setup has shown to drop down to lower setups. As an example. The Reedy Race. Drivers were running 198 software and FDR'd at 5.1 to 5.2. 199 Software with turbo and we ended up in the 5.6 to 5.7 range with the same motor temps but faster over all runs, faster straight speeds, and a more punchier/faster infield.

So overall the software provides the best of both worlds essentially. Now there is no compromise so to speak. There is generally a give and take but this software is a step in the direction to make it a "take and take" situation!

Tekin, faster, smaller, and most importantly Smarter.
