Hi Guys,

Another fun club night, thanks to everyone that turned up for a play.

I'd just like to say a few words about the trial of the 21.5 motor in Johnson 540.

I'ts become apparent quite quickly that 21.5 is much faster than the 540, at least 1 sec per lap on our track, which has lap times in the 23sec range.

This is fairly consistent with tests done at other tracks around Australia.

I believe it's very important to have an entry level class that's relatively easy to handle & I think that the 21.5's are too quick for this purpose so we will not be continuing the test any further.

I do think that a brushless motor will be used in the 540 class in the future but it will be in the range of 23 - 25 turn equivalent, so for now we'll wait until these are commercially available.

For anyone who has gone out & bought a 21.5 you are welcome to run it in the Stock class or perhaps run it in an F1.

So to all the 540 die-hards, your motors are safe for now but change is coming.

Regards
Martin

That's almost guaranteed - I was only in 540 for the test so I'll be back in stock next time.
