Okay, great! That's much better than the whole set!

BrianG, yes, I am wondering about this myself. When it happened, it was on street, I had my 7s2p pack installed, and I can't remember what tires I had on, I think it was my RD Logic spike tires, which don't seem to have alot of bite on asphalt, I was some easy drifting though!

I mostly accelerated moderately, only a few times I really gunned it, but I did not lift the front end up, if seemed to be actually spinning the tires.

I wonder if a steel gear would prevent this... like it would have more thermal mass and absorb heat during high speed, perhaps?
