Went to FZRC 5/21 to test and tune the SC10 and T4.
SC10
Changed the motor system to 19 turn brush motor, wanted to see how well a brush motor would work in Stock SC. Gear it right and it's SWEEEET! Gear it wrong and you fry a motor!!! Motor temp was 140 after six minutes of testing so I'm good. 160 temp is the max after five minutes if you want your motor to live!!!
T4
Put the Castle Sidewinder ESC and Speed Passion 10.5 motor in and after 8 minutes of testing motor temp was 138 VERY SWEEEET!!!
===
Decided to test/tune the "Make a RC Wish" Rustler. We try to race test every RC we give away. This has a Traxxas XL5 esc and a "handout" stock (27 turn) race motor. After 6 minutes of testing motor temp was 167, changed the motor pinion from a 21 tooth to a 20 tooth and the motor temp went to 186!!!!!!!! Was going to change to a 22, BUT as I was driving to the pits I hit a post and broke some of the steering parts! :-(
===
Looking GOOD for a visit to FIRCC Friday 5/27 for some carpet off-road!

FZRC
First! The parts came in for the Losi!!! :-)
Signed the Losi up for Stock SC, they separated the Adults from the kids for the Qual's. Almost lapped 2nd place the 2nd time in the first qual. Raced the HPI Blitz in the 2nd qual, TQ'd that one also!!! They announced that I had the Blitz for sale!! SOLD!!!!!! :-)
Stock SC main, 2 Losi'd, 2 Blitz, 1 Slash and 2 SC10 lined up for the 10 minute main. The Losi was lapping racers by lap four, finished 2 laps in front of 2nd!!!
===
The SC10 was ready for Mod SC. TQ'd the 1st qual and NO ONE beat the SC10 time in the 2nd qual!!! Lap one of the 10 minute main was in front by a couple of seconds and pulling away!!! Then at lap 1 and a half, pinion slipped and removed the teeth from the spur!!!!!!! Was able to get the SC10 to the pits, changed the pinion and spur, back on the track to move up from 10th to 9th. Passed 2nd and 3rd once during that last two minutes!! So they only had 15 laps on me instead of 16! :-)
FZRC again in two weeks!!!
