It was a really nice week weather-wise. 70-75 during the day and about 60ish at night. A far cry from the 30's in good 'ol Des Moines!

Yeah, I know heat will be an issue, but I'd still rather replace pads than expensive lipos. Besides, running the two speed prevents me from running elec brakes, so the point is moot really...
Hopefully you will get to make it out here again. Maybe RCX? I bet you loved the weather .

Good point about the 2spd vs motor brakes. I just wanted to point out that you might want to increase the number of discs to increase the surface area of heat dissipation.
