Rewrite that post, I couldn't understand it. Mostly the 'if' and 'corse' parts.

I am talking about with a perfectly tuned engine, electric is still faster. Nitro doesn't have the instant power of electric.

The big deal is that jump every lap will gain about 1 second and if they were run together (which they are very rarely), electric would have a 1 second edge every lap, which would add up to approx. a whole lap in a 30 minute race.

I know 10 guys who run electric and have driven about 5 different E convesions. Does that mean I win?
