Just got back from the FSEARA State Race, had bunch more S400's in the field then the last race. All the cars seems to be working pretty good. The conditions were pretty difficult, track temps were up and down ,it went form 75 to 45 in temps.
We got to test with the gear diff, and it is very promising.
I know we had a car in the A in both Sportsman ( 13.5) and Expert ( 10.5).
We run our mod class, in a Reedy, heads up manner, and I had some real solid runs.

Another great weekend for the S400 at the New years Rumble race.
Running the fastest laps we sat just a tenth or two outside of TQ, and were set for a great A Main. But Parked the car on the first lap, working through the field pulled a turnbuckle. Car was excellent and turned the fastest laps. Worked on some different setups and changes, ran the thinner chassis to try and perfer how the thick carpet chassis feels in the car. Gear diffs still untouched since vegas and working great.

The gear diffs, are they run front and rear?

Bought this as my first electric car and installed the 3200 orion lipo. Im dissappointed it didnt fit as i swore i read on this post that it will. I really did allot of grinding but still im not happy with the fit. I need it to sit more to the right as its too close to the main spurgear. Also the positive wire out of the battery is even closer to the rear belt pinion. Anyone else notice this?

This is the grinding i did.
This is below the T-bar. I grinded half so it can still lay flat.
Closeup shot close to the pulley
Maybe too close?
Overall shot with the battery in place unsecured
