So, after rebuilding and threadlocking the tranny, was just out to test it.. Ran 2 1/2 tanks through - was perfect..

Couple other observations though:

1.) When still and at full steering lock, when I give gas, something binds..
2.) The Go was going great again today, but I already think I need another step up. I want maximum RPM's - in an engine that can still be run in a buggy.. I don't race, so am just more of an RC gear-head - and yeah, I like RPM's.. Got a new Argus coming, which might rev a bit more than the Go, but still not enough methinks.. Alpha A872? Or Werks B6?

Was also neat to notice today how much better the grip was - was about 85F compared to 60-ish the last several times out..

Thanks for the help guys - especially the guy with the tip about threadlocking the inside grub screw to the shaft in the 2-speed.. Pretty sure that was my problem..
