I sort of, unintentionally killed off one of Doc Mertes' finest full race Red Dots tonight. I think it may have been in the way out anyhow. It was a used motor that I think came out of an F104. I had it in my M-04, with a 21t pinion, S-Grips, on a fairly flowing indoor track. I got in about nine good laps and a really slow one right at the end.

Motor temp, after dawdling on the way to my bench, was 210. Going by the smell, I'd guess it peaked closer to 240. Silver cans get really sluggish when that happens!
