I'm interested to know as I want to better understand the upper rpm limit for the timing.

Thanks

Running basically Schreffler's 13.5 setup with a Duo1 17.5, 6.56 FDR, the Novak Sentry data logger showed it was getting up to 32,250 RPM on a 90 ft x 40 ft carpet track (and that was with a chicane entering the straight!) Crazy fast!
