Everyone is gonna tell you to get whatever speedo they have, 'cos they think its the best!

And I'm not different!!! I use a GM Genius 90 and its totally awesome, I actually haven't needed to change anything from one of the standard profiles and its really really fast. Although if you do want to play with it on the pc it is probably the most advanced speedo out there, but this does mean its can get a little confusing at times. But overall, IMO its the best. (but then it would be! lol)

I've had a Tekin, last years and this years GM, and a Xerun (pretty much same as speed passion) and I much prefer my Tekin. The GM, while just as fast as the tekin, is far more confusing. The Xerun I found to be not quite as quick as the tekin.

Hi Matt, not sure what settings you were using but we are getting feedback from drivers that although the XERUNS are a little softer than the Tekins, lap times are actually improving as they are a lot less 'sensitive' to throttle inputs. On a side note the new Xtreme Stock ESC is another level up on the 'older' XERUN V2.0's, much more punch and power than before. Pricing wise we have them pitched at a price point that puts them firmly into the 'budget' of even the most poverty stricken driver. They are also considerably less complicated than the GM and the RS and there is no need to take a laptop to the track to make adjustments as you can use the LCD Program card to adjust ALL settings within the ESC.

Take a look if you like we currently have them in 3 shops in the South East and are rolling out our sales program to approach selected Hobby shops as we speak. Any shops who are interested but haven't had the call yet feel free to email us at sales@racersinexile.co.uk

On another note we would appreciate some help / advice on having our motors Ratified for Next years BRCA list, Stock levels are high in the UK, shops have them in inventory so we are good to go, can anybody help us out on this one?

TIA
