From my testing I have to disagree with you Chris....my best working FDR is 4.29....lol, and I get the same results big pull towards the end of the straight and 160* for temp as well on the fan. The only thing I found was if the the motor was at 130* at the 4 minute mark the motor ran fine for the 6 minutes with out any thermal fade or performance drop off.
Did anyone at the Gate race run the modified end bell that Josh makes, and if so any info on it.
EA will any of the opened endbells be available at the IIC?
