I'm glad to report that we swept the event in the modified class. We were averaging a second per lap faster than anyone else.I don't know what motors the others were running, but I was running my Novak SS 13.5 with just a touch of endbell timing added. The rest was my 120a Xerun with the 211 f/w.
So here's the setting I ran.

MOTOR: NOVAK SS 13.5
FDR: 8.68
F/W: 211
MOTOR TEMPS: 101
ESC TEMPS: 85
RUNNING MODE: FORWARD/BRAKE/REVERSE
DRAG BRAKE: 0%
VOLTAGE PROTECT: CUSTOM 6.2
DDRS: LEVEL 7
BRAKE FORCE: 87.5%
REVERSE FORCE: 50%
INITIAL BRAKE: 0%
NEUTRAL RANGE: 6%
BOOST TIMING: 30
TURBO SLOPE: 18 UNITS/0.1 SEC
OVERHEAT PROTECT: ON
TURBO TIMING: 30
BOOST START RPM: 4000 RPM
TURBO DELAY: 0.3 SEC
TIMING ACC/SLOPE: 350 RPM/UNIT

Next week I may try my SS 17.5 with the same settings, but different fdr.
I ran this same track yesterday with my 17.5 SS motor using mt 13.5 setup. It was even better than with my 17.5 setup. Didn't get a chance to check out my lap times, but we swept 'em again. The motor temps were at 162F max & esc topped out at 110F. I think that was due to the 85 degree day & hotter track conditions.
There was one racer that was even with me in speed & handling. He said he was running a stock brushed. We ran the last 2.5 minutes about ten feet apart.
IT WAS AWSOME!
