Gearing can do this too. What are all the temps on batt esc and motor? Are you running 2 2s as a 4s or just a 4s?

Motor and esc are usually no more than 90-100 but batteries can go up to 110

guidelines to get a better grasp of progress. Charlies your cells probably should be replaced... the balance tab is severed and the last time I charged them for you I noticed that they swelled exponentially since the last time I charged them.

Going to work on the racers stand and the track if possible tomorrow. It was way too muddy to work on today. I will post if it is workable on the track, so the guys that said they would help will get a heads up. If anyone can help with the racers stand, that would be good also.

Just want to say thanks to Dustan and my folks for all their hard work. Its getting there slow but sure. the track was too wet to work on it this morning so we worked on the drivers stand and pit lane. this afternoon I was able to get out and move some clay around but had to stop because of a leak... gotta check it out in the a.m.. I will be working tomorrow from 10-5. If anyone wants to come out and help... great, but I wont have time to talk... gotta get things moving.
