RE: Questions/Issues.... Too Scientific???
Knowing the technical aspects of your setup is a good thing IMO.
Knowing your speed and KE levels will do you no harm, but will give you more knowledge and understanding of your equipment. Knowledge is power. The more you know the better decisions you can and will make with equipment decisions.
I can tell you just about anything you want to know about my setup, and it won't negativly affect me at all come fall. It hasn't any other year [8D]
