Searched and searched, hoping a few folks will chime in about the logic and thinking behind changes to a motor setup to run boost vs. blinky. I have only ever ran blinky. Recently built a SCT based dirt oval car. About 90oz final build weight. Initially put a 13.5 MC2 Motiv in, standard high rotor, paired up to a XR10 Pro 160a esc. Set the motor up to about 42 degrees on the can and its perfect. Rules changed or i misunderstood them and now i am going to run boost. How do you folks go about making changes and whats the logic to the can timing and rotor strength to make for a better boost motor? Track is not as high bite as carpet, but not as loose a dry powder clay either, id say somewhere in the middle, sometimes a little more on the hard/abrasive side. I have talked to a few folks whom i really respect their opinion on the matter and the general idea on esc settings was 10k/12k boost on and 20k/25k max boost for the points.

I was thinking about going down to a Mid Rotor and turning the can timing down a bit and setting it up to run 20 on the boost and see where that takes me. Maybe taking about 5 teeth off the pinion based upon where i felt we needed to be with blinky mode. Any suggestions or theories to share on the logic behind something different? I am a sponge right now and looking to just soak up as much as i can about why we do what when we go outside of blinky.

Thanks
