18 / 81 - If anything this is on the lower side of gearing I thought.

Also, the motor wasn't running incredibly hott, but just seemed hotter than what I'm used to with my trinity motors.

Now say if it is a slipped rotor, will replacing just the rotor be sufficient?

Again my symptoms were, a grinding/squealing noise and basically wont move the car.
Take the rotor out and see if it's slipping on the shaft. Easy to replace the rotor but I doubt if it caused any other damage. What do you have to lose?
