Well they'd shortened the track for 10th and I was not getting near top speed in one spot, might that be the cause (as in the gearing maybe need your suggested adjustment on that track, but not others with longer straights?)?

Am going to sort some more pinions/apurs anyway and try it, may a lower kv motor help too?
