I coudnt see any reason why they did that.The wires to the motor were fine.One just quit working no wires frayed or nothing and that happened in one of qualifiers.Another qualifier my steer servo horn came loose and came off.In my main my 2nd MMM caught fire.It did no other damage to the car except it melted my receiver because it was next to the MMM.
O-well i was having a crapy race weekend anyway.
I had talked to the Tekin people earlier that day and checked out there new esc and motor and they saw what happen to my car and they just watched in horror.Bob Novak was there too and he saw it as well.Not a good day for castle
