I've pondered this myself. My jeep tends to be kinda jumpy at the low end. What if you just put something in the groove the throttle cable sits in (Strip of metal, plastic, etc). The bigger that cam gets the farther you have to push the petal right? If you put the strip all the way around you would loose a little top end. so what about just 2/3's? Making the cam more of an oval shape. that way when you hit the top end the sensitivity would go up. Just judging by the size of the cam I don't think it would take much to notice the difference.
