The RC Pro International Finals were this weekend and three of the top five were running Tekin. There were more in the triple A mains but I don't know the others. The 3 in the top five were running the black heatsink version. I have a red heatsink as a spare which is now going into a test buggy.

The track was extremely brutal and a very long straight. I learned so much it is unbelievable. Billy's Xcelrion system had good torque but I would have to lift 3/4 the way down the straight in order not to run over him. Brent's LRP had the top end but didn't have the rip to clear the tough jumps without having to pre-setup for them.
