Okay, so with a 10.5 there could some minor adjustments but it is a good basic set-up for sure... Thanx, will try it when I have mine... When I have a set-up I will post it here and maybe something for the BMI website...

The GM speedo's are together with the Tekins the most populair and most udes ESC's over here. Most guys in TC stock 13.5 and Pro10 Stock 10.5 use them as well as in 12th scale in the fall/winter. Both of them really are performers...
