Here's an interesting video of some switching in 1989.
After watching the way the engineer was running the Geep I immediately went and added a ton more momentum to mine. I also increased the force for the independent brake.
Watch in the video how he notches the engine up to speed and then throttles back to idle while it coasts along. Now that I have a ton of momentum programmed in I can do the same. I also have to use the brake to actually stop where I want. It's actually more fun to have to run this way. I might have to shoot a little video to show how it feels, but I like it.
