Have a question, just got into USGT. t4 14, Orca VX speed control, blinky, Orca tx 21.5 (brand new). I started with max timing and geared at 46/92. Started out on the track and had to apply brake for a corner and the car would sorta cog (it would stop and i would pull the trigger 2 to 3 times before going again). I tried another sensor wire, that didn't work then I tried a lower timing back down to 10 degrees on the can and no change. If I don't apply brakes its fine but when I do it hesitates but its not consistent. Does anyone have some info about this?
I'm thinking maybe the sensor board is not good?!?
Thanks in advance.

When you check with Eric you might ask about the ESC settings too. We had a similar problem with Hobby Wing Just Stock ESCs. The fix was to run in forward only mode (no reverse). Also make sure you have a capacitor so when you brake the amp draw doesn't cause your ESC to get below its minimum operating voltage and reset (thus causing a delay after braking while the ESC reboots). One sign that this is happening is if you have steering response but no throttle. My Tekin ESC was is notorious for that.

odd ball question here, but are VTA bodies legal in USGT?
with a change over in rules in discussion, to make one of the races I don't think I have time to get my gear fully VTA legal if it changes to USVTA, so I am thinking I could setup my daughter to run in our club USGT class but with her VTA body. Electronics would be legal or at least "allowed" as far as the motor (its a VTA 25.5 so slower) and she could still run and I will have legal tires.
Just curious on the body mainly.

so right now what appear to the common popular bodies for durability that look right offset wise with speedmind wheels using an xray t3 2012 as the chassis?
If my daughter really likes the class, I may pickup a body for her specific to it and have her do her first painting job.

I would recommend the 350z or Camaro body. They cost less then any tamiya body and both work very well and should hold up decent.
