Temps are about 170*F, no fan.

It seems to be about .1/.2 faster than our local Tekin cars, and on par with the only Novak Kinetic at our track (a team car that was driven at the Nats with a good setup on it).

Can you try run the same motor but with 10* timing (that what most DUO 2 run) with higher final drive..? We did...and you might like it. Try 6.8~7 final....or higher.

Also, run fan, the biggest thing that you can find.....if you are not MAXING out the motor/esc power, you are not winning...
