Last 2 days on the short track, I've used same the software n setup given by you but using different ratio 7.25 due to no pinion to macth up 6.4ratio and Tekin 10.5T (ratio 7.98) get bitten by me.

4 of my friends using Tekin esc and 10.5T Tekin motor but myself using HW120a and Team Power 11.5T motor. We are using the same car Xray T3.

The track is semi technical with 60feets straight line. Pickup is better than Tekin even do his ratio is lower than Tekin. Motor temp 141F without fan. The best part is my motor start roar a sound of a lion same as Tekin and it never happened before.

My car come out a bit fast from Tekin but early 30feets manage to leave Tekin by measurement of 7 cars but Tekin manage to get close to me (my tail) after nearly end of 60feets. Tekin turbo delay is 0.2 but my HW is 0.4.
Any advise on the setup??

I have pinion 19 thats will make my car ratio 8.40. If I use this on small track can I leave Tekin and cooler down my motor?? Any changes on the setup?

As I was mentioned earlier, I played in 2 tracks, small track with 60feets straight and big track with 130feets straight line.

With the setup I played last 2 night, I think I will get bitten by Tekin in big track because Tekin manage to catch up with me and get more faster after 40feets++ straight line.

Pls advise on the setup of the big track.

Thanks for ur guidence and advise coz now I've already start to smile on the track

Thx..

Although in OZ the Extreme Stock will be available this week sometime, and the V3 is due in the next few weeks, but no details as yet apart from being a touch smaller.

I understand there are also negotiations with a US distributor, so you should see some stocks flowing shortly.
