I raced at the rc pro series florida series race #2 today with the revo.
I qualified 2,less than 1 sec from tq.
during the 20 min a-main,for some unknown reason the batteries came unhooked 3 times
the first time it happened I was leading the race,after the 3rd time it happened,i was multiple laps down,but fought my way back to 2nd and that's where I finished.
I am very pleased with the truck and the axi motor.I finally have the motor temps under control now,20-40 is how it's geared after the 20 min main,that was real wet after the thunderstorm delayed the race the motor was 140,esc 100,batt's were ambiet temp
That is with about 2-3 pounds of clay added to the truck
I think I will try a 21 pinion,that may be where i end up gearing on a track that is not deep like the track today after the rain.

Congrats Kevin,

I would tighten up those Deans connectors for sure. You would have taken 1st if that hadn't happened. Bend the little spring thingie on the Deans with a pair of needle nose pliers to tighten them up.

I never tried 20/40 gearing. Sounds like it works pretty good.

How much runtime are you getting on the new batteries? 4S2P 5000mah 20C right?
