Generally I run around a 4.0 on a D3 at our track and was running around a 4.15 with the TP motor. Going up much past 30 on the timing usually resulted in a faster 1-2 laps but fell off much harder and got hot. It generates a lot more RPM but you'll loose torque.

What did you feel was the better motor in your opinion .. for say tight/technical vs. larger open tracks in TC?
