The current limiting is set to 80%. Cedric used his laptop to set up the parameters of the ESC last night at the track. I dont have the data cable for the Teken so I am not sure what other info he set it up with.

And thanks for the offer to loan a battery Jeff...I will have at least 2 new ones here tomorrow.
if you want i can bring out my labtop and we can change anything you want, pm me if you want to do that, if i dont receive one i wont bring it tho. As stated tho with that battery i would not restrict it , with the bigger packs yes you will want to restrict it, to exactly where is personal preference. Once you get a proper pack, and proper settings on your esc, then if you still need more speed play with gearing .
