Re: battery pack redesign
I don't know Kymbo, what happens if someone hits you from the side or you take a heavy landing. It would suck to go out of the race because your battery pack got mashed or fell out. I can't see the real benefit. But hey, I'll be really interested to see how it goes

. Man id be afraid of a meteorite falling from the sky and hitting mine 
while on pole in a final. I find it interesting though that in 1/8 you dont need a hard case RX batt, especially with mods like this. Be interesting to see if they make a rule change later. Im pretty sure Kym is going to secure batt with velcro or some 3M double sided tape, that top brace is just to hold it down I think.

Mmmmmmm...... it would have to be a massive unlucky impact to break through that side fairing? but then again it is quite possible it will happen in the last minute of a final while in 1st possi .

They both claim that the Mod "just makes the car better allround', not sure what that means really, so will check it out, if I see no benefit, will just go back to normal.
BTW mate, all jobs were completed here, with excellent results, thanks again, hopefully we sell with ease.

It's almost a carbon copy of Cody King's mod, except his was a Lipo instead of a Life. His and Tebo's both survived a huge week at that RC Car Killer track in Pattaya, so hopefully it'll be ok.
