All three classes, GT1 (13.5), GT2 (17.5) and Formula 1 (21.5) were won using the R1 Wurks motor at the Tamiya National Championships this weekend in Aliso Viejo, CA. They dominated each class with wins in the first two of three mains making in not necessary for the winners to run the last round. All three winners dominated their classes winning each Main by as much as 10 seconds on a track that laps out around 14 seconds! Great job Craig "Cuda" Hammond (F1), Julian Wong (GT2) and Nathan Weir (GT1). Enjoy your trip to Shizouka, Japan to compete in the Tamiya World Championships in November! Steve "V", you rock!!

My R1 Wurks 21.5 motor and 4600 shorty pack sure made it easy to stay at the front of the field in F1 this weekend.
I ran 25 degrees timing on the endbell with a conservative gearing choice.
Never even considered 0 degrees timing on the endbell.
Who'd a thunk?
Redbull, gonna be seeing you soon for carpet wisdom to take with me overseas.
Can't wait to play in the land of the rising sun with my new travel companions/race team mates.
Let's get it on! C'mon!
Thanks again Steve!

Pigio,
I have used all the motors you mention in 13.5.
I like the R1 best! I can get the D3.5 almost as fast, but it fades by the end of a 5 min run. My R1 does not. I run my D3.5 with an fdr of 4.0 at my track, but my R1 I run fdr at 4.8, very different from my other motors! It just works for me there! It gets a lot more rpm than any other motor I've had.
Try it!

I do my share of track testing too; however, our local track is only set up two days a month so the street in from of my house gets a real workout. My ESC telemetry is great for picking FDRs that can be refined at the track. of 10 cars Sunday in USGT, there were at least 5 different motors (including a TrackStar) and all were competitive (fastest to slowest were all within 1 sec on a 16-17 second lap course). Driving still is premium!

we run 8 mins. I run 4.0fdr 30 timing in my usgt with R1. same lap times at end. The only faster motor is one guy with the new team powers but that is only .1 on a hot lap
our class is the same all different motors, don't think i've seen a killshot though
