At least 4 losses could be directly attributable to case shorted 775s during our 2011 season. We tested them all prior to competition season. A short developed throughout Waterloo and ultimately started causing problems in GTR.
Even though checking the resistance between every match got us through Champs, we had to "blast" them 3-4 times, each time holding our breath hoping that it would work.
We got lucky... it worked every time.
A year off for the 775s is the plan so far for us. If we're forced to us them, they'll be completely electrically isolated. Plastic mounts, and 1st stage gearing.
