That's what I thought, before we tested this. Everyone always said, little engines, run straight for less drag. But after testing a lot we found 6mm works best, we actually broke the lap record, unofficially in 2008 testing at Soucy on the hottest day of the year with 12mm. Only above that did we see a significant drop in straight line speed and revs.

Of course it depends on driving style as well, the lad likes the front planted and the back loose, so it works for him.
