But if you're having trouble and not seeing the results you expect it's usually a good idea to start where we know it works

If you try increasing the motor timing you may find a much better powerband by running the larger spur. More motor timing = more rpm/less torque. Less motor timing = less rpm/more torque.
Mind you I had fastest lap of the day in mod truck this afternoon so the results/performance are there. I just like to get every bit outta it I can. hehe

Ill try the bigger spurs again and increase the timing next time out. Thanks for tip.

I'm sure all this back and fourth is helping others reading too and can be used similarly in SCT.
