Could this be the reason why my car felt like a turd speedwise?
i think the answer depends on which ESC. (and i know with tekin RS software, v198 or before?)

with the current tekin software, you can turn on the speedo or not, there should be no performance impact. however if you turn on the speedo then the volage cuttoff will be operable. (not a high priority for me, so i never bother turning on the speedo switch) either way, it is hard to see how switch's on vs off position would impact runtime performance
