How hot is hot and how old is that motor ?
280 to 300. 1.75 gal thru it. 1st gal in parking lot for breakin and getting a feel for nitro. Never got above 260. Temps were an issue along with tuning and in too low of a gear sound. Anyway, just wanted to know if temps were also a symptom of slipping clutch. Hopefully, that will go away today. Cleaned everything last nite. Going to mate bell and shoes on green springs today. Afterwards, I'm going to set up a softer clutch, 2-0.9, 2-1.0 or 4-1.0 springs. Hopefully, I can test that out later this week. I have an electric trigger finger so I fig my clutch needs to be softer until I develop that nitro trigger.
