Another one for Speedpassion! I raced this weekend at the GLARC Toys 4 Tots race and ran RCGT. The track is 250'x100. We ran the whole track for 7 minutes. All i can say is the V 3.0 17.5's are awesome! I geared my Cyclone S 75/65. Yes, 65t pinion! You can imagine that lanes were wide open. Motor temp was 129*F. I do have a 40mm fan on the motor and i am running the 312 program as well. I did not play with the timing...i really don't need to. Especially with the super tall gearing, you want to keep the motors as cool as possible. I don't recommend gearing this motor this high in any track smaller. This was geared just for the long 250' straight.

where is a good place to find supersized pinions in the 48 pitch and 64 pitch sizes?

The final drive was 2.49.:nod:
still - 2.5 is loooow. i like it. and to come off at 130 is awesome. |
from what I was told by a very good driver, the V3.0s appear to definitely be more on the torquey side of things. I am curious from others, in general, how much of a difference in pinion size are you seeing going from motor "X" to say a V3 of the same type (17.5, etc) ?
I am thinking of picking up 2 V3.0s since my other 21.5s failed, already have a 13.5 but no class right now for it. |

i did until i geared up (11 teeth from my duo) on a 13.5. i run the sp-lpf and i ran a 4.24 ratio on a 90 ft indoor track. tons or torque, but no revs. i think i was coming off at 165*F or thereabouts.
i went +5, +3, +3 and it was a dog until the last jump. i quit there. |
wow. I am curious then how this will work out for VTA since we are limited to 4.2 FDR?
with my Tekin 21.5 after a few changes I found 4.66 to work well. |

you can buy them at www.speedtechrc.com or http://www.racing-cars.com/usa/searc...rtname1=partno

dunno. there's no reason to assume that the other winds will exhibit the same tendencies, but most people are leaning that way...
and i may have been undergeared with my duo. however, they were running the same lap times... rule of thumb, add teeth, temp the motor, and view the lap times. ;) |

Is schumacher the only Speed Passion support around in the US ???
B/C They dont seem to reply or answer to anything. Its always a question back and then email ignor from there on. They make decent products as long as it works any question beyond that its ignor. Not the best customer service...:mad: |
anybody know where i can get a version 3 4.5? because everywhere seems to be out of stock????? and it isnt even listed on the speed passion website, which makes me wonder if they have stopped making it?
