I track tested my 24KO today and I have to say I'm very disappointed. I choose the KO because it is suggested for short tracks, heavy vehicles (which mine is not), and high loads. My track is small to medium size with lots of turns and several doubles and a couple triples all clearable in 17.5.

Before the track I had it in my buggy driving up and down the street and it had very high RPMs according to my RSX logging feature. It felt decent in the street. However, the track was another story. The 24KO felt gutless and after about four minutes I could feel the power begin to fade as I watched it struggle to clear a double triple that my D4 1s makes with little to no trouble. I tried several changes such as varying timing anywhere to mid 40s as high as mid 60s and gearing from 71/31 to 78/28. All to no avail.

Maybe I should have gotten the non-O. Possible dud?
