I'm going to kick it up to setting 3 and 4 friday and see what I get. 12th scale rocks. quesiton for the mod racers with a 4.5 or 5.5 do you get them 160F on carpet? I was driving it like a stock motor grip it and rip it. I know not the way I should be but just for testing and practice. I mean 145 doesn't sound hot but I don't remember getting a 17.5 with a tekin much hotter then 125 135 at the birds this year.
Temps should be much tye same as you will as you will use less gearing and less full throttle.
