you find once you get out in some seas that smaller and faster is better than bigger and slower.
You are running turbo charged engines when you launch and get off the throttles even the slightest you will loose boost almost all of it, if the props are too big you will not regain boost because they will drag down the RPM's.
Smaller has less drag and will accelerate and get your boost back faster - you'll see trust me on this.

Your slippage is looking good, maybe you can decrease the diameter on the 32's to pick up some more speed. Sneak up on it.
