I think the mindset was that of a grudge race (don't over talk about your strategy to others). Ron and V wanted the win - just look at how hard he fought and pushed back on the autocross rules to make his point. I doubt we'll learn if they turned down the wick to make sure the car hooked and won. They didn't need a hero run to win. They didn't want to break the car before the end of the overall contest.
I believe the tune for the dyno run was probably pushing the edge. I doubt they would put a customer's car on the street on that tune - they'd dial it back to be safer.
I say all of this as its what makes sense to me about the track times versus the dyno numbers. I'm speculating of course - just like everyone else - since none of us were there to know for sure.
