Back to the regular scheduled programming.

So I tend to run my equipment a bit hard. Rolling back to the days of my Tamiya EVO5, back comes the air scoop. Will be happy to get some targeted air flow.

oh.. that could be another potential innovation from the USA.

Greg - again, big thanks for the two logos. They look great. The upcoming stickers and race sponsorship banners should even be better looking . As my e-mail to you already said, I'm going to need a lot more banners. Someone had to step up and become the title sponsor for the ROAR Nats -- this March 14-17 at Horsham RC.

That sounds great Dan. I don't think we've meet before -- but hopefully we will soon.

My order has shipped as of Feb 27th. I'm just waiting on it to arrive. I did some testing of my web store last night, still got some bugs to work out.

I also installed similar scoop. Ive had this since 2004, when I attended the 2004 IFMAR WC race in Florida and most shaft cars were running this. I actually got it from HB team.
I did not do a back to back comparison on temps but it seems to work nicely. It does not affect the handling of the car. I did not like the fact that some dirt was scooped towards the motor.






On another note, here is some love for my A700 in its latest setup

I've received my first shipment. I've decided to only stock A700EXL kits, and I have a TON of parts.

I'm working on the hobby store price list and loading the inventory into the online store. Should be available in the next day or two. Until then anyone who need something can e-mail [email protected]. PLEASE have part numbers ready. Trying to describe a part is very hard .

As can be expected from Mike, good communication, and my parts are on their way as of today, right after I made payment. The same excellent customer service you'll read about in his other projects as well. I didn't have a huge order, but an important one for me, can't wait for the parts.

Thanks Mike
