radiators have no influence on speed

Might be a bug with the 109 someone was saying how they could catch a 109 in a hurri by closing there rads a bit.

well i experienced something similar twice online....couldnt outrun a hurri...
it followed me for more over ten minutes and until he was out of ammo...
the distance between us remained the same during the whole time.
and i tried everything to gain distance with dives and shallow climbs, but it always was about 500meters behind me...

Well, that is pretty much my standard race-experience against Hurricanes...

But that is also in line with the rest of the so-called CEM. The useless magnetos, fuel prime pumps and simplified start up procedure, no over-revving damage, the constant low fuel oil consumption. What is now better in comparison to 1946 is, that the temperature and oil pressure gauges actually work, which makes it a little easier compared to 1946.

I think your forum handle nails it pretty well

I've noticed this as well. Seems like I can fly around all day on full throttle with rads full open and not lose any performance to drag. Probably a bug?? It's like they fix one damn thing and something else goes haywire! But being as the game is as complex as it is I guess it's just the nature of the beast...

Yup i notice the same you can't outrun a hurri in a 109, if you start a shallow circle climb the hurri will catch you, if try to dive it will be sticked to yer tail.
