GM Racing V8 ESC Questions
I just picked up a GM V8 ESC and wanted to know if anyone has the specs and might know approximately when it was produced? I'm also looking for a copy of the V8 model instructions, either online or physical.
I found the online instructions for the V12 but there's no copyright date.

Re: GM Racing V8 ESC Questions
I have the Instruction Manual for the V8 ESC, strangely enough it's an A6-sized booklet, which also covers the V12 models as well, unlike the online manual which only covers the V12. Unfortunately, no specs and no copyright date.
I should be able to scan them in for you a bit later today, if that helps.

Re: GM Racing V8 ESC Questions
Seems to be.... there's nothing in the manual that seems to be V8 specific.... only reverse functions for the V12R model...LTO_Dave wrote:I'd really appreciate that if you have the time.
Is the basic programming of it the same as the V12?

Re: GM Racing V8 ESC Questions
Ok, don't waste your time scanning it then because someone on facebook posted a link to the V12 manual. It mentions the V8 once, but everything else is centered around the V12.
Is this what you have?

Re: GM Racing V8 ESC Questions
I think they were out 1997-98. Masami used a GM "V" esc in his IFMAR TQ RC10B3.

Re: GM Racing V8 ESC Questions
Awesome! That should make it period-correct for my MX-4. I was looking in a old RCCA that has New For '99 on the cover and stores are selling the V12 and the MX-4, so I should be good.
I don't really care for the Novak and Tekin ESC's from that time and wanted something different that also wasn't a budget model.
