Thanks for the suggestions. I've got punch control up to 70% with no noticeable lag, I'll try going even higher. I drilled the esc case and I'm waiting on two fans, top and bottom. I kinda hate to do it but I've seen in 10th scale how much difference the fan made on my GTB. I haven't been out to the track yet to test but I know it's better already.

I put all new wheel bearings in it last week, that helped, a couple of the rears were dry. It seems to roll nice and smooth without a motor in it but I'm still going to double check all three diffs for bearing issues.

I notice that the Neu motor feels like it's dragging much more than the Feigao but I think that's normal. It did make me have to adjust my driving style to avoid flipping backwards off jumps with the Feigao. It's like the Neu has a built in drag brake.

I just ordered a 49t spur and a 10t pinion (both hardened) so I'm thinking that the gearing should be much better. It actually changes the drive ratio (pinion-spur) from close to 1:4 to almost 1:5, big difference.

I'll update after the next track day
