Hopefully I'll have the new rig in time for Motorama.

If not I'll cancel and wait until the fall. Not much summer racing for this cat...

My money is hard earned and I have been fooled by companies before, How soon we forget the 1/8th scale car that was designed by a guy who had never even driven an 1/8th scale car previously.
I am just glad I can finally I sale the cars again since I could not sale the centros. I will be selling these at a players price.

Honestly, I'll wait for his reply. His first sentence was straight up perfect English. The second one, I'm guessing Russian immigrant. I don't even understand your post since he mentioned the Centro and you never did..I'm still

IMO, there's a lot of things to consider before listening to people who say go mid motor or die. Any RM guys still doing well at your track? Are the MM cars faster than the RM cars were before (would have to be on the same layout)?
Fast guys will always find a way to be fast, whether they run mid rear or front motor.

IMO, on REALLY high bite, a MM car can be better. On the average club track that doesn't eat a set of tires every run, either car can be fast with the right driver.

Timeout!

I'm not sure what "unknown" you guys have been arguing about over the last page and a half, but Hartson was testing the car today. Last week when I saw Kody testing it, he was running it with a shorty in the "longitudinal" direction, and the Reedy square pack, He was also running just a plane burnt red shell. Today Steven was testing the car with the battery in a parallel to the motor setup, FWIW he also had a shell painted in his scheme. I asked Kody point blank if that was Stevens car or the same test mule, and he looked me straight in the eye and confirmed it was still the mule.

Time in, carry on with arguing over speculation.
