Nice thread btw Mark
Hope they've changed the material if you're running plastic pinion gears in the gearboxes. In the XK98 running 12 turn motors they used to last about one and a half meetings. If you left them longer than that they took the crown gear with them when they started jumping teeth.

The steel pinions are wonderful...
