JohnB - It's just so I can take it to the track today and spark some interest. I won't have it running for a few weeks. I need to tear it down and CA everything still. With exams starting this week, R/C will have to take a back seat.

I'm doing Automotive for now. Long term I'd like to go to law school, but it will take a while to build up some money to fund that.

serpentracer1 - Thanks for the offer, but I'd kind of like to do it myself. How do you sand your chassis? I tried sanding an extra upper pod plate that I had and the edge came out rounded, smooth and shinny using 1500 grit, almost like it had been CA'd. That's it?

Thanks mate,

Matthew.
