Thanx!
im running the enemy (104) for the next couple of weeks for two reasons. One being that i need to find out where the FGX is lacking compared to it and the other is that i am working out the kinks on the IFS system, should be a beast when it gets back on track!
Judging from today, it seems like the FGX is lacking in midrange acceleration and tends to go flat after the first few minutes. The 104 likes a high tq motor and insane gear ratios. I think that a higher revving motor should work better in the FGX but not sure yet. on its last outing it ran better with a higher FDR (2.6) compared to the 2.1 that i have on the 104. More testing to come.....
