i raced years ago...but so much has changed!
Get pinions to cover you from 75-90mm. Not sure on that motor, but should be safe starting at 82-85mm.

I would say 86-88 mm.... I made the A at snowbirds with 84 but that's a little bigger track.

90x46 is about the size of HoB Max. I would say start with 85mm and work your way up. But I'm not familiar with the Schuur Speed motor. Mine is with the D4s and R1Wurks 13.5.

Thumbs up rollouts...the magic

thanks guys! i ran around 89mm last weekend on this track...it was okay but it was my first time out in alot of years. my driving needed more help than me changing pinions to go faster. as the day progressed i cut my tires down and the rollout then was around 87-88....seemed quicker and ran the most laps of the day for me. i will continue to drop and see if it picks up even more.
the motor never got above 120 degrees and there was very little fade.

I run Schuurspeed motors, and our track at TQ is the same size

85 rollout, 40-45 timing should put you close

Google 4-40 thumb nut and you will find some. Those are the "standard" threads. Or 3mm for the metric ones.

You mean like this? http://www.tqrcracing.com/shop/produ....asp?p_id=6920 Or are they different than the Standard ones? I don't remember... I guess 4.40 like above would be better I guess...

Default Associated 12R5.2 Motor Sensor Wire Routing

Hello all, what is the best way to route the motor sensor wire on the Associated 12R5.2 without it rubbing on or hindering the rear pod? Should it be kept along the same path as the motor wires or somehow fished between the pod and body mount support?

Thanks for the help!
