I got some new rotors off my uncle (who was sent buggy rotors, not truggy rotors), so was able to race this weekend. I had my new slipperential to try, which went together perfectly.

I ran an XB808, 46T spur, 17T pinion, 1700kV T8 on an RX8. 5S 5500mAh 35C Hyperion. Slipper was fairly loose as the track was dusty and had little grip.

I qualified 5th overall, only my pinion came off in round 3, meaning the run was useless. I decided not to change my rotor for the final, just to see if it would last. Even with a run-through-the-pit-lane stop-go penalty (as I didn't have to stop for a battery change), I finished 4th, only about 7 seconds off 3rd after 20 minutes.

With a combination of the new Tekin rotor, and (probably more importantly) the slipperential, I've finished my first ever final with the Tekin (all the rest have been DNFs). This is the best result I've had all season with the Electric, since my second meeting with a battery change, a Medusa motor, and an MMM.


In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.
