I get what you’re saying James, but the engine has a characteristics power and torque curve and that is fixed regardless of the track. The point of gearing is to be able to keep the engine geared where it’s making the best use of that power/torque characteristic.
I can see in some instances though where using the average feature may not be the way to go, but for most instances…I think it should be a pretty good starting place to arrive at the optimal gear. that’s my thinking anyways…good to hear you guy’s take though…this was the point of the post
If you have any data from rotax senior from different tracks where you know you were on the quickest gearing…can you for info sake double check what your average per lap rpms looked like? I’d be interested to see other people’s data…
