I knew Tom Beatty and Joaquin Arnett (head Bean Bandit) very well. I also talked to Jim Nelson several times. I picked up a lot of useful info from all 3. They all knew they were leaving a lot of ppower on the table but all had to weigh cost against going faster. If you are winning, it is hard to justify investing more money to win by a larger margin.
