Hi Joe I know what your saying! I guess the way I justify my nebulous logic, 
is spinning tires use up time, not distance. We are faced with a distance, not 
a time problem. Stupid example -- I could spin tires for 5 minutes in a 
puddle of oil at the start, not moving, which would not effect top speed at the 
end 
of 5mi. I think controllability, and being able to use max power at all 
times, is top speed friendly.Jack
