There is a "black hole" in DCOEs when they transition
to the main circuit, but at least with Webers, you can
set the rpm where the stumble occurs.  This may be OK
for narrow-band rpm road racers, but it is a PITA
for autoX.

And for the FOTer who expressed surprise at 8K rpm in
the 6, this is possible with a nitrided cross-drilled
billet crank, something that is STILL not available in
the US (for less than $6K).  :(
