Raced the E8 for the first time today with 90+ degree weather
No problem making the 7 min heats, no cogging, no shutdown
Motor temp 140, ESC temp 109 after the heat using 16t pinion and 5000 4s Lipo
Lots of torque but not as much as the 1/10 4wd
Runs like a 4wd buggy on steriods, can keep up with Vspec OS even faster on the straights, just have to learn how to drive it and set up the car
a buddy painted it like a jet fighter cockpit (so I can see if things are burning inside)
