HMIRCR (Sarasota, FL)
NOT enough racers showed up for a race, so Mike (Make a RC Wish) and I did a LOT of test n tune.

XXX-SCT
Speed Passion Cirtix Inspire 2.0 esc and a Reedy 3300 motor are a very powerful setup! Had NO problems any where on the track!
Started with 18/84 gearing and after three laps changed to 21/84 WAY better may change to 21/81 for FZRC next week.
The Losi always had a rear wobble under power with a 10.5 or faster motor. The Reedy 3300 is like a 9 turn motor. Moved the shock top mount in one hole and added two spacers to the inside of the rear shocks. NO more wobble!

Mike (MRCW) was having a bit of a problem keeping the motor tight, had already killed a spur before I got there. Had a Traxxas Slash with me, put a battery in it and let Mike drive it for a few laps.
Asked Mike IF he was ready for a upgrade? He said yes so we changed the radio and receiver from the Traxxas Rustler on to the Slash and after a battery, I asked IF he was ready for another upgrade.
Took the Novak esc and Triniy 27 turn motor out and installed a Leopard 60 amp esc and Leopard 9 turn brushless motor in! NOW he has power and a SC truck that is race ready!!!!
