The few seconds delay on boot up is normal, its checking for transmitter signals.

I dont think that the issue you had on Sunday was speedo related, it was all too quick, looked more like a sensor issue as it was only mid corner when the car was nearly at a stop. May be worth swapping sensor lead and motor to see if its any better.

<<<<Just read again that you changed the motor so looks like that was indeed the problem, did you use the same sensor lead or a different one ??? >>>>

I ran a 6.5 Novak Ballistic motor that day. I swapped motors to a SP V3 5.5 now and ran the car down the local club without any cut outs...

When I turn my car on initially it takes a couple of seconds to let me throttle. the steering works instantly. Is this normal?

In the races it was only cutting for half a second and it was hard to work out if it was happening when I was off power as it was usually just as I was on throttle trying to get out of the corners. I tried to drive without letting off the throttle completely, but couldn't avoid the cutouts
