weird, the UK are going hardcased lipos only. Also, we all know, prototypes aren't the finished product, look at the TM E4 pics.

I agree, Max amps IS crap, its over price, and over rated crap...... While you wont be pushing a pack very hard in a touring car (compared to something bigger) They dont hold there 20C, there more in the 15-17 range..... There good packs, and Austin is a super nice guy, im not to into MA......

39T(Diff Pulley)/18T(Drive Pulley)=2.166

Thanks!

Both pulleys on the layshaft should have the same number of teeth.

Default 16t front pulley 18t rear pulley ?

Thanks for the imput guys, I know what your saying ref having different sized pulleys on the lay shaft. Has any one tried this with the cyclone ? and what was the result. Also im sure I read on the hotbodies website that if you run just the 18t pulley to the rear it gives increased traction, so im guessing that they have tried it. Last question is if I run the 16t /18t pulley on the lay shaft
what will my internal ratio be so i can gear my motors, I know its 2.166 to the rear but is that the ratio i use to gear my motors.
Thanks every one keep the info comming
