Cole, what brushes do you run in your spitfire and do you cut them or anything? Also, what gear do you run?

Brushes: Standard.
Cutting: I've only cut the comms once, that was about 30 packs ago. I'm still using the originals brushes, which I haven't cut. I assume I've run about 30 packs before the first cut.
I'm racing and compeeting in our club. I plan on racing with other clubs this season.

Maybe I should add, I'm using Orions Speedy Drops for about every 5-10 packs.
Just got my P2K.
My Spitfire blueprinted data:
Max 23.011 rpm
8,6 torque @ 16650 rpm
105 watt @ 16650 rpm
62% is the best effiency @ 18595 rpm
P2K:
Max 27.988 rpm
189 Nmm torque
129 watt
72,5%
Hard to wait...
By the way, do anybody know what's the unit for measuring the Spitfire torque?

I use the GM3s and the P2Ks for touring. I'll use a purple/+ and a red/- on the P2k and Red/+ and a green/- on the gm3, both react very good to 4499 Trinity brushes and make sure to keep the bushings well lubed. Niftech makes a great bushing lube that I put on my bushings before EVERY race. It makes the bushing look like polished brass!
