Hey, I forgot to mention the temp and runtime data stuff.

Keep in mind the track was cold, like 40*, so it's way different than in the summer. I didn't use any fans.

And I kept the lipo pack nice and toasty in the pits. I kept the pack wrapped up in a little electric heating pad while charging and waiting to race... kinda like the tire warmers on road guys use. So the lipo stayed @80-90*. That looked funny but worked great. :)
motor temp, esc temp, mah charged back after the run:

1st heat: 125*, 120*, @1400mah
2nd heat: 162*,125*, 1680mah
3rd heat: 128*,128*, 1350mah

geared 16/46 every run... runtime varies a little depending on how many warm up laps I run etc.

But in general I was running about 3 laps warm up and the race is about 6 minutes once the time is up and you take the last lap. So I would say @ 7 minutes ave. track time. The thrid one I stopped early and the first one I think I was taking it easy.

So it looks like I was using around 230mah per minute... very happy with that. In a 30 minute main at this rate I would only use 6900mah.
