I do just this for my indoor track, but It's a transmitter setting, not on the esc. Basically I set my throttle end point to 50-70% of the full speed setting which never allows the esc to get to full power. I get to the best setting after a few practice laps at 70%, then reduce a bit more if its still too powerful for the track.

for small track indoors, I tend to gear down a few cogs, and I run 70 on the current limiter set in hotwire. I also take off any timing advance and boost, as its not needed.
