to expand on what smoke81 posted:

17.5 duo, timing middle hole, 5000 40c battery, top photon

that's with a 2.0 interal so 5.6 to 6.34 final (rubber tires jacos), the real problem is the 60ft straight, with this short of a straight it feels like the timing advance is kicking in only right at the end of the straight when you go through the sweeper, so i guess the real question is what changes exactly when you change the timing advance from 0 to 6? Does the amount of timing change, the curve, when the timing is applied, all of the above???

I was runing a 5.6 final and with timing advance on 6 and many different curves and would come off anywhere from 160-175 depending on the curve, but it just never felt like the car would have punch and top end it either had one or the other.
