i used to run mod motors..........


yesterday i ran stock race for the first time........

everybody was running trinity monster stock tuned by the same guy.........

I ran a very, very old P2k, its comm diameter is only 6.78mm!!!

I TQ'd by 0,3s (the fastest laps are counted to line up the starting grid)........my best laptime was 14.68s....

I didn't win due to a broken rear belt........

I ran locked 24 degrees timing, matrix 767 brushes (same as reedy ones), red spring on (+) and green spring on (-), one drop of TRIBO on each brush face before every race start......

final gear ratio was 6.2.....the straight lenght is more less 40m.....

at the end of a race my motor reached 90ºC on the brush hoods........i couldn't hold my finger on the can for more than 1 second.........
