Use the GT2 PRO with 428 boost now...............unless you like something slower and thermal cutoff.

CIRITX ESC will still be around...however, the combo may not. We are only selling the combo now to the local club that are committed to the race even that do the SPEC RACING with our system/combo. So if you are interested, please contact our office and let us know your proposal and we will provide our suggestion on the combo package deal....
I hope they are still available, ordered mine Friday, and the website says in stock in the US warehouse.

What is the motor temp range for the V 3.0 17.5 blinky TC class. Iam running a 4.0 in a TC3 and it is around 120/ no fan after 5 min race. What would the max motor temp be. Thanks.

Oh no sir ! I was able to convert other manufacturer users locally to the SP line of ESC! of course I helped them so they dont have to do any guessing with setup.

What is your track size..? Indoor carpet or outdoor asphalt? I think you need more timing.....all SP motor should not be warmer then 180°F.

Good deal.....where TORONTO are you guys racing at...? I have quite a lot of relative lives there and I will be up there next month for a wedding (Markham, Richmond Hill, Mississauga area), may be if I have the time, will bring over a 17.5 and run some laps...PM me the info. Thanks.

I run on carpet. track size 25x60 really small tight twisty layout only one straight. The straight is only about 45-50 feet long, It seems like the guy's with max timing on their motors cant really use the full speed/ rpm. With the 4.0 fdr now i can use full power to get down the straight, iam not loosing much down the straight against a trinity revtech running max timing and also 4.0 fdr. Would it be better to run a higher FDR like 4.4 and run more motor timing to get more acceleration out of the turn?

Oh yeah...I thought if you are running 4.0 you must be indoor carpet...I have 2 current setup for indoor carpet....35* timing (yellow board) with 4.0 final or 41* timing (blue board) with 4.2 final....I myself (personal skill factor.....slow driver) has better average laptime with 35* timing and 4.0 final setup....the faster SP drivers with better skill run the higher timing 41* with 4.0 to 4.2 final setup....I just cannot handle that extra speed on tight high traction carpet track.
