The Go stormclouds are gathering here in the US and my finger is on the wire transfer button. Still no concrete ship date, but with the quantity I ordered, I can totally understand. I've been told they're working as fast as they can.

Guys... just an FYI, we're seeing optimal temps are 260-270 Fahrenheit on these motors. Smooth, predictable power on demand, and more of it. you guys are going to love these motors.

Also, we will be giving a few of these away at the AMS 2011 in Georgia. I've already sent the order for april to have some delivered to the Speed Shop (alan burton's shop).. Perhaps at the southern nats too.

cant wait!....we are still loving the 1st Gx series....i can only imagine the power the GXII motors are going to have....as for temps...my GX5R with ceramics likes to run at 250-260F (case temp) and 220-230f (head temp) some times a lil cooler

Couple of things we need to know -

What model GX - 3, 5 or 7 Port
What track conditions you normally run - dusty, slick, blue groove etc.

With this info I am sure you will get plenty of advice
