Cool

I still have the Chrome around the windows to go. But here is Mr. Full Throttle himself's new lid. No doubt you will see this on the track in the lead

Indoor light sucks. You can't really see the drop shadow around the yellow flames. And the rear is not black. It is more of a gun metal. It does look sweet. I hate to send it to him.

Team Drivers:

I will have out in a couple of days a team price list for motors and batteries.
Also I'm working on a list of big races coming up for the upcoming carpet season and the final months of outdoor season (asphalt).

I hope everyone racing outside this weekend stay's cool.

I have been working on 12th scale stock motor testing the last couple of weeks. I think I have found the setup for the Team to try out and see what they think. I will also be working on 12th scale 19T testing for brush spring combo's.

If any Team driver's are running 12th scale stock at the Sedan Challange on August 19th, please email me and I will let you know the motor setup that I have been running there. I'm going to be trying a couple of more combo's on Sunday.

Bob- I didn't get any emails yet. I will respond to your PM tonight. I typed a response and when I hit send I lost my connection. I'm having problems with my sprint cell card for my laptop.

Hi guys, Not sure who is going to West Chester this week so I will just send this to everyone.

I am trying to get an idea on how to gear the new generation of motors so that we have something to use as a reference point when we travel to new tracks. West Chester is known for being a big track, so this is a great opportunity to try some stuff out. I know most of you will be running 19 Turn or Mod. What I would like is after you are happy with your car, if you could each run 1 practice run with a stock motor. This will be great testing because of the heat. I can't give you an exact gearing to start at, but I would throw 3 teeth more than you usually run on there and try two laps...you want to top out about 3/4 of the straight. I'm guessing a CO27 will be somewhere near 5.6-5.8 range.

I only want you to run a handful of laps. Just enough to say, yes I think this gearing is dead on. If you hit it on three laps...great, test over. If you have access to a Temp gun let me know the temp when you come off the track. Also let me know if you are running fans (which everyone should be LOL)

Guys who are not going to WC can help out too since its pretty much going to be hot everywhere...just give me an idea on the track size when you reply back.

PS anyone running an X motor or something OTHER than a CO27 ??
