Novak normally sets there motors for "30" degrees. But, I found when using their ballistic motors, going below "15" degrees, the motor starts to cog. So, I actually think their 30 might be closer to 15to20deg.
When I ran my WGT car yesterday, I had problems with my car being really slow, so I moved the timing ring to the fully reduced timing setting, and the car really picked up pace.
