I feel there is definitely time to make up there by being able to accellerate through the whole section.

This is also true of John/Andy's old ESP car which now lives down here in NM and running the stock 04 rev limit. It's owned by the Love family down in silver city. We (the Love's in BSP and me and STU) spent a pretty sad amount of time pegged on the rev limiter on 2nd. I had a distinct gearing advantage running the 245/45 rather than 245/40. I didn't think it would actually make that much difference.
