I ran 22/87 with a heat sink and fan on the reedy 3300, no heat issues. It was ok and decently fast. The main thing i noticed when switching to the reedy sonic 7.5 was how much more torque and power the 7.5 had. I will say though the lack of power helped me be smoother around the track. Run times were about twice as long with the 3300 also. All in all its not a bad motor, but there comes a point when you feel like you have extinguished its potential and are ready for more power, thats what happened with me at least

I use the hazard wheels. Seems to makecthectruck more stable and less twitchy. I have switched to the DE Borrego rims. They look pretty sick.

The Borrego's need a washer behind the wheel nut on the rear tho, as the rim is to thin and the nut runs out of thread on the axle and wheel is still loose a bit

Sc10.2 is coming out in a couple months. That's what a little birdie told me at the track yesterday. Keep your fingers crossed.

Talked to an engineer at Ae yesterday. He works at area51. Trust me on this one guys. Same chassis. New bb shocks. Aluminum steering rack just to name a few upgrades that will be coming on the new kits.
