You'll be impressed. Report back 
Most pro 4 owners (many other motors in this class too) deal with heat issues, and basically have no choice but to run an rx8 (or similar) esc w/ a limiter just to keep things in check regardless of gear options. You don't need to worry about temps or limiters any of that stuff ever again w/ the hw 4k. Gear 13-16depending on setup your esc/ esc settings and size of track and just smile and race. These really are expected results though with a rotor as big as it is vs. the pro4’s.
It has a different power band w/ more torque for when you need/want it.. subjective of course if you actually like the 'feel'. I've found you can come off a tight turn and be a little off the line and still have the rear needed to nail everything just a little easier than w/ the pro4. You can even adjust in flight a little better if you have a less than perfect take off. This was far more challenging w/ either of the tekins I owned when setup to the 'race settings' to avoid heat issues. For someone who can throw fast laps but may miss a line or two (unlike you guys that nail it every time :P) it can make a big difference through the duration of a race. Top end it will stay with or even walk away from the 4600 depending on setup and with a lower temp.
Please note this is all my opinion, but is supported by my experience w/ all of these choices discussed (actually have tried 12 motors and 5 escs in this truck) over the last few years. Ask others though w/ this setup and see what their thoughts are,, I'd suspect they have had similar results.
V3's have been out since spring, v3.1 is now available with some minor improvements. Agree most are just fine w/ the sctpro.
+1 I need a sponsorship, hook me up!

Was the Gnarliest Motor I have ever run in 20 yrs of R/C Fo Sho!!!!Times as they are (all illusions set aside),a 85 dollar sensor- ed 4-pole 4000 kv just fits the Bill.I really hope to see more Upper level Sportsman drivers ,step up and support this Class!!!!P.S I would like to see more sponsored Sportsman drivers that
share in the wealth for that class.

If you don't buy the TLR tuning kit for the scte 1.0, make sure to at least get
1) front/rear carbon shock towers
2) rear kit of racing springs
3) kit of sway bars
I'd also get three of the new diff cups and just swap them out from day one when you put in your oils and take out the grease. Otherwise it'll be a good truck to you, plenty of tweaks listed on the other 1.0 scte thread.

Oh, this is 2.0 thread. Good tips regardless. After I did these and other things my truck nicely comes down again after lifting it.

Tech Regular
iTrader: (1)
As mentioned earlier on the older thread...there was a batch of rebuild kits that had the DIFF O-RINGS in them instead of the x-ring type shock o-rings in them. They look completely different. It sounds as though you got those. Give CS a call and they will get you taken care of. I apologize for this.
Will you guys take care of the LHS if they have a bunch of the bad batch on the wall?

Meh, I think I'd go for the Tekno so I'd have one of both
