I just wanted to commend EA motorsports for being so prompt on thier shipments. I ordered sunday, and I got my motors on wednesday. Its great to see that EA motorsports supports and cares about their customers. I HIGHLY reccomend them to all my friends and to all the new guys that are just getting in for the racing season. Thankyou so very much. You guys are the best. ( Now, its time to use my EA motor and whoop on some people on the track )

EA,
Totaly missed you at KO, it was still a blast...Put it down on your calender for next year....
The motor was suprisingly a pretty steading runner...
I finally over heated it in the Main....funny thing that Main but that is for a later time...
I was running a 5.43 final on that motor yesterday and it was still begging for more...Morning pactice and first qual for today ran a 5.30 and it was great...
Never thought I would use a 43t pinion...LOL
ran that ratio for the main ( track temp went up faster than yesterday) and burned it up on the very last lap....
Oh well wasn't going to put that motor in my motor box anyway...LOL
Take Care & GOD Bless....

EA... yup, totally agree with Mr. Shookie... we did miss your presence at the KO race. I could have used a little more motor tuning skills than what my mind was capable of. But then, I believe I was the only EA guy that got in the show though... so I hope that was a good thing... Qualified 10th and ended up 8th in the triple-A. Finally, some decent results after Reedy...
Pls thank the Mrs for the speedy shipment of the replacement brushes! Those really helped big time... (although I do have to apologize for the delay in shipping back the wrong brushes... I still have them but should be able to ship this week. )

I saw so many different setups and mine felt great as I wasn't getting smoked on the strait...I just had bigger issues...LOL
Still funnest time RC'n to date....
Watching a couple of pros almost get involved in fist-ti-cuffs was different...seems enough gents had it handled...LOL
Some sick close races for sure though....

Stephen... we had the whole TAOB involved in figuring out how to deal with these motors. Unfortunately, we really didn't come up to a concensus. I geared my motor at 5.57 with XXX brushes. Speed and Torque was decent and I didn't notice anybody motoring me in my heats. Hebiki and one other teammate tried 5.3 I think in one of their qualifiers, but the motor looked slow on the straight so they reverted to around 5.5~5.6. I'm sure the real fast guys in the A were able to go lower, but how? I have no clue... it is just a totally different motor than what we are used to (Reedy Quad).

eeyan is right. we're tried EVERYTHING. in my last qual.. i was running the stock springs with F-brushes. oh yah.. they were bent 180 i did gear it at 5.4, car felt fast.. but it was kinda slow in the infield? kind of too fast on the straight.. or maybe i was just imagining it? either way, i rather have a slow car i can drive..than a fast one i cant control... know what i mean. i settled into 5.58. car was great.. pulled off a "corey lewis" like 14.5... but i wanted to finish a decent qual..so i didnt drive very aggressively. servo horn backed out..so there goes that!
EA... i guess i dont have to pick you up at the airport then huh?
