Was actually running 25.5 touring but was planning motor set-up and gearing for an upcoming VTA race (that unfortunately I didn't end making it to). Gear was 3.7 if I remember correctly. Finished 1st at the event in 25.5 TC. I will be running it again here in a couple of weeks for a VTA event and let you know. Though I do understand you're running F1.

I am a bit confused about the timing.
I have a 25.5 V16 and from what I have read, I should put the timing at 30 degrees. Correct me if I am wrong.
and this timing where should I read it? on the can, on the motor analyser or on a motolyser?
P.S. I run on a carpet track 80X40 with an F1
Thanks

I was looking at the new R1wurks website. In the tips section they highly recommend not over heating the motor. Keeping under 55/60c. Duh. With advice on mounting motor and fan for max airflow. I already run a fan on all my motors. I have noticed some racers now running 2. They suggest 1 or more fans! Heat weakens magnets. My new 13.5 s-sss? Should be here next week. I think I am gonna start bringing ice cubes and a baggy with me to the track. My thought is to pre cool the motor before each run. 1 ice cube in bag sitting on can. Hoping for finish temps of 100-120f. My last 13.5 (not R1wurks) was only getting 140f. But I have seen guys with temps as high as 240f. Not sure what they were doing wrong. Geeked about getting new motor. Cheers. I also found this. https://www.amazon.com/MG-Chemicals-.../dp/B008UH3NB8
