That should really be the other way round, the P51 is about 15mph faster at low level, but the P51 does not accelerate as well as the Fw190A so it may be that neither of you are reaching your respective top speeds, and all you are seeing is the Fw190As superior acceleration.

That could be it, mostly in climbs i catch up to them then they dive and turn a bit and i lose distance.

Lately i just keep following one, and the chase just keeps goin for alot of minutes. But hes just out of range for my guns hehe.
