Hi Guys, thanks for the info - we've recently moved to Senior Max from 100's and have had very little track time. I suspected he might be a little too heavy footed on occasion but he claims not.
Please bear with me here but, coming out of a slow corner into a long straight the best way to get the most out of the max is to open the throttle gradually but have it adjusted so that we never get full throttle? Would adjusting the needle make any difference?
Incidentally, we are setting the jets using the formula given on this website and checking the weather the day before racing - do you all find this is a good method? I know you guys with experience know automatically but we are still novices on the max!
Thanks to all who have responded
