kyew still thinking whether to get a yok or HB?

i managed 16.5 at BK's on sorex last weekend. i believe i can still extract more from my current car with a bit of setup and driving adjustment. therefore will only move to a new car when i think the current one is holding me back from going even faster. anyway the tcx is not released yet, the yok is very expensive locally, plus the twin star brand is still fast in the corners at the ETS, so........

Anybody know if the lipos with the "humps" on the bottom will fit?

any further news on a release date, was going to update from the TC to an Xray T3 but like the look of this, so may hold off for the TCX

For the bullet plugs..drill a hole through to the other side, then turn the pack over and neaten it up...

Works for me with a Exotek Chassis..

Don't really fancy that at all, so are you saying it won't take them?

I am worried it uses the same suspension parts....

I see cyclone knuckles break every race day, many

also I see many cyclone parts where the left is 1 degree and the right is .5 degrees, not accurate

No part is indestructable... If you hit things hard, graphite parts WILL fail. There are plastic more forgiving parts available...

I'm not sure what you are refering to with regards to inaccuracies? In all the HB/HPI parts I have used I've found no faults with the moulded parts.

The car looks really good. I had a old Pro 4 and if I ran close to the wall the C hub would break apart. Maybe I was just a much better driver then and hit the wall much harder.

Had the TCX in my hands thanks to Hiro from HB who is at the Reedy Race. Very nice indeed. I'll be waiting patiently for one.
