I was most assuredly using wep.

To get the advantage against the Rotol or IIa, assuming someone is on your 6 somewhere between 750m behind you CO-E, you have to stall climb. If you grab a buddy in a Rotol, for instance, and climb out to where you are in a proficient climb, between 275-300kph the Rotol will just climb up to you and kill you. But if you point the nose up another, a guess here, 10 degrees to where you are climbing at a measly 190-200kph,

I was at 200 km/h indicated on the dot.

The only thing he can do is get directly below you.

Do you have a track? It's like we're playing a completely different game. This guy started out below me by about 500-1000m and climbed up into me like it was nothing. It wasn't a zoom on his part either.

f they point the nose up to try to match, again I'm assuming CO-E to begin with, they almost stop dead in their tracks. Once they are directly below you, limbering along like you are, then spiral climb in a stall. This will slow em down even more as they will either have turn with you or you obviously get a nice shot at them when they appear in front and below you.

Yeah I do this all the time to Spitfires Mk I and Hurricanes but it doesn't work against the MkIIa.

Give it a go.

Seriously. I did what you described almost verbatim.
