Thanks, Col!!
Nicky, it might seem like a good idea to lock Stock motors, but the reality is you can only then check them by taking them apart. Unlike the brushed motors of years ago, you cannot easily see where the sensors are for scrutineering.
With adjustable timing, everyone can experiment to find the sweet spot for their track and/or driving style. I know it sounds wrong, but on the track it does help to even up the motor performance. These days you are likely to get a performance advantage from the speedos as well - some 'blink' faster than others!
