put your 19 turn in and see how it goes in practise.. if you keep it on its wheels then keep it in. if you can keep it going well and need extra speed on the straight then use your 12.

Ash the straight is only 5% of the track, very little tile is made up there. You will lose more time by making 1 extra mistake using a 12 than you would gain from it
