GT2.1 Pro Stock
Apologies for the silly question but how do you change the settings track-side on the Speed Passion GT2.1 Pro Stock Speed Controller. It isn't like the Tekin via laptop is it?
And can I assume this is the speedie you want if you run stock? (They seem to have quiet a few to choose from....)

I am looking at a used gt 1.1 SP .Is this version any bigger than the version 2?
And does it have the timing option or boost of any kind.?We are racing on a small tight track.We run no lower than a 10.5 motor.I don't think I need a high end up to date speedo.We just run small club races.
regards

I am running both and I can tell you that the Speed Passion is faster in overall lap times. The SP rips out of the corners and has a really great feeling throughout the infield. I reeled in a Tekin on a 100' straight like nobody's business.
I run the SP and the Tekin back to back and the Tekin generates different power then the SP. Both can be fast, but in my hands the SP is faster and my motor comes off about 20-30 deg cooler on every run.
Let me know if you have any questions and I can post my setup if anyone wants to try it.
SP software is 528 Stock and Tekin software is V203

This ESC with the SPv3 is magical. I'm curious to see how the Tekin feels with 208, but I don't think there's any way it can match the rip this thing has.
I can't seem to make this ESC play nice with my DUO or DUO2's, though. It seems like no matter what, they run hot and slow. Even with less physical timing on the motor. I prefer the DUO when I run a Tekin though.
