And that's my point - it will not go quicker and quicker around the track because there comes a point where it won't pick up out of the turns and lap time suffers. Straight line speed is important for about 10% of the lap. Everywhere else it is the zip between corners that counts.
Let me put it another way - I don't know any top twenty racer who uses this method. If it was any good they would all use it. It only seems to be used by a handful of mid-field runners who think that a setting in a no load situation is valid for a race situation where scores of amps are drawn under load.
Sorry, but this has yet to convince anyone who knows about motors and racing that it has a place in the real world of racing an RC car.
