Hi James, yes, I did NJMP Thunderbolt, Mt. Tremblant, Watkins Glen and VIR last year with the new motor. It definitely has more oomph, accelerates faster and hits higher speeds at the end of long straights. Also, there are places where I can leave it in 4th gear, brake and then roll on more throttle rather than downshifting into 3rd, brake and then accelerate and shift back into 4th. The thing is, with my current experience and skill levels, I need more power like a moose needs a hat rack. But it will be there when I'm ready to take advantage of it!
