Running an epic d3 21.5 roar spec on a xray t3 '11. 4.2 drive ratio.


These are my settings at the moment (running V1.35-101212stock)

1:1
2:3
3:5
4:7
5:4
6:1
7:1
8:1
9:6
10:1
11:-
12:6 (Initially used this on 7 but the car showed 80-82 degrees and faded a little. On 6 the car didn't fade at all but temps stayed the same.)
13:1
14:3
15:5 (I'm going to test dropping this to 6 next as I assume this is most likely to drop temps?)
do you run a cooling fan on the motor ?? this will lower your temps
