MMM Explodes into FLAMES!

SERIES. SERIES! My mistake. I even went back and changed it from series to parallel after my proof reading my post before sending it! HA! Man.. what a tool. Sorry.

You know... it did cross my mind that the tires might be a touch big. But my Badlands weren't extremely far from it, but smaller yes. They gripped like mad too. Too much for certain things. I don't do a lot of high speed driving. Just medium speed bashing around the yard. So, I hadn't been really driving it around all that fast this day. 20min of it tops to be exact, and my very first time ever w/ these stupid tires!

I'll have to think about my gearing because I can't remember. I think it might be 54/20. And given my temps were always good w/ the Badlands... I didn't think a thing about the tire switch. I realize that 54/20 is pushing it a bit for med speed bashing (i.e. not speed runs), but w/ that 1515 2.5d can always doing well before, and at WOT from time to time, it just didn't occur to me that the Moabs would cause a fire! I figured it would get bit hotter, but not to the point of failure!

Gosh... I sure hope this wasn't a serious oversight on my end. I'm sick about it already. Do you think that 25C is too low, or ok in this case?

W/ the Moabs, what gearing would you suggest?
