8 Tanks On Plastic Gears!

[hamster huey]

I am trying to see how many tanks I can get on my plastic gears before they let go. On this one I run 28.5cc, 29/31 gearing, excavators, 8k spring, xcan, and no gear cover at all. I jump and do lots of wide open full throttle driving. I am running the vented clutch bell and fast eddy gearplate bearings. Changed back to upgraded plastic gear plate. I now have 8 tanks on the same 29/31/25/25 plastic gears! Very happy, satisfied.

its all in the air.. i have 6tanks on my plastic gears as well. a/b's have even more then that.. im running a nicely vented gear cover. they have some chips and abvious signs of wear, but they still have a good amount of time left..

Krap, I couldn't get 2 tanks out of mine in the winter bashing at -10f! C and D failed within minutes of firing it up. I suck at plastic gears.

Something tells me there are a lot of variables involved but I am happy with mine! I still want a better D shaft though but I can live with it as is if I have to.
