Castle 1717

[Unsullied_Spy]

I got my bearing in from Boca and now it seems I borked a CD bearing, but I ran it anyway. Pretty sure the can is too big to allow for my 14T pinion, so I slid on a 16T just so I could run it (geared for 60 MPH before ballooning). Accelerated my ~14 pound Muggy to top speed as fast as the tires would allow and in the 3 minutes that the pinion stayed on the shaft it never got even noticeably warm (running without a body). Seems like the perfect motor for my Muggy, but I'll have to wait until Summer to see if I need to mod it to take a bigger spur because there's no way I can gear it down to 45 with those tires and the stock spur.

I got some video, it's kinda crappy but it works. I have no internet at home right now, but hopefully I can netstumble upon some sucker who thinks WEP is "good enough" and get the video up.
