just be chill and make laps on the wheels and youll have good runs.
i just slow it down a peg or two, and just run a smooth steady pace
(hero laps dont win races)

just think about this:

5 Min race

the competition is running 20 sec laps

your running 21~22 sec laps

your competition has two marchalled crashed for a total of 20 sec

you have a slow steady run that is marchal free

he would run around a 15/5.20.00

you would run ~ a 15/5.09.55
