I cant understand the problems that you are all having as with mine going down the straight at batley on sunday at full pelt (it felt like the thing was going to take off it was that fast) and putting the brakes on about six feet before the slippy corner at the end of the straight I could coast round the corner nice and slow. I have my drag brake set at 1 and min brake set at 2 (very low).

Right i contacted Cml today.
They are aware that motors such as the 5.5 / 6.5 etc all use the older design of rotor. They told me that it is affected by heat and that the brakes are not good. They simply go off with use and too much heat. As mentioned they do a replacement rotor for a rrp of around £24.99 that updates the rotor to the sintered design. As mentioned this will solve any problems and will also allow the motor to run cooler. The new design has been approved by the brca - however this isnt going to be legalised until april!!! I have mine on order and with any luck shall have it for trial this weekend at southport.

Hi Colin,
The BRCA approval shouldn't effect you unless you enter the indoor finals, but as for the club - it doesn't matter, and the regionals will start after the date.... just fit it, run it, and let us all know how it performs...

What can are you putting it in?
I believe the sintered rotor in a 5.5 or even 6.5 can would be too fast for offroad. If we run sintered rotors, it might require going to 7.5 turn cans or even less (or is that more?). Let us know how yours goes with the sintered rotor please. G

5.5 is about 7 turns, i have the nosram 5.5 and it goes like hot snot in a TC dare not run it in a 2wd buggy
i have the 7.5 on its way which is about 12 turn and is what Neil Gragg used at worksop, both are NON sintered and i have had no problems with brakes. i also have a mamba max 5700 (bout 9 turns) which feels similar to my nosram 5.5 i also have a mamba max 4600 (12 turn) which is really good in the B4, with a smooth broad power band. the mambas atthe min are not brca aproved (on with it) and they also come with sintered rotors, nosram is sensored and mambx is not i prefere the speedo on the mamba as its fully adjustable and updatable via a usb port (you can customize profiles and then save em to pc/laptop) the biggest thing i have found is gear them higher than you would a brushed as they seem to like to rev more. ill be a york sunday and have both so if u fancy a nosey come look

Mine is the Novak setup the Gtb 5.5 Not the Nosram system like yours, i imagine its motor design is newer than the Novak setup. Hence the differences.
I think Novak are continually improoving the system all the time.. Soon we shall a perfect setup lol...
