I have used this arm and on a blue king track you just wait for the straight a everone else ( who did not know what I had) thinks you have hit the NOS button.
You need to gear it up as its is all torque.

I've built three so far, all in Kelly 16D setups and they are fast.

You won't believe the gearing. Running on the old Eagle King last Saturday, I was gearing 14-38 . . .

Robert Root says start at two teeth higher on the pinion than you would use on a normal small arm, but I think 3 or 4 teeth higher on the pinion is more like it.

The motors do not run excessively hot at this gearing.

Cheater, what mags did you use?

Mark, I am using the Kelly mags, which are strong! Some of them are reading over 600 on my Trik-Trax.

BTW, I somehow ended up with a TOA track card with Greg Woday on it after the Nats at ECR. Been using it all year since I snapped my old brittle TOA track card. Don't tell Greg, okay? 8-)

Cheater, the lane change card is my brothers obviously he left it there but he won't be needing it he just uses a advertisment from the local gentlemans club. He seems to not forget that one. :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: ;)

Are you going to Mineral Ridge ?

Mark, yes, we (me and my albatross) do plan to be at Mineral Ridge for the Div II Nats in 2003. In fact, I'm very much looking forward to it.
