We're already on the rev limiter around 850ft. So we're simply holding onto our balls the last 150ft or so already. So going another 320ft would actually be more costly for us even if we go down to 85%. We're usually running 89% - 89.5%.
Sure, 50% would be A LOT less violent. But it's not a good idea. Because again, 50% with a supercharger (TF) compared to 95% without a supercharge (A/Fuel) would sound different, but the ETs and speed would be nearly identical. So then you're having to slow down TAD which isn't fair to them.
99.99% of nitro teams are fine with the current setup. We like just about everything we're doing with the power, 1000', duel mags, 14-71 super charger, etc.
