Just got back from our vegas test session... It went extremely well! the latest modifications and setup changes worked very well. I Qual'd 3rd in pro and finished one round in 2nd, not too bad for the second race and second round of setup changes. It handles the bumps pretty well now

Pics and vids coming...

Congrats Tony, can't wait to find out the changes you made. I ran the buggy today with the battery in front. I was worried that it would affect rear traction but it didn't and yes made it jump a bit nicer.

I always used to prefer truggy but this buggy is just so nice to drive!

The one car you gave to Nian is going very well. It looks very easy to drive and very stable when the track gets rutted. We will have to wait and see how is going to do at the Nats as there will be very fast Losi drivers to compete with.

No Speedy he is talking about the brackets that hold the front and rear differentials in place i had 2 of them on my buggy crack all so. We have found out how to fix this you need to add 4 aluminum countersink washers to the front screws and rear screws that hold the Brackets in place i used these http://www.vp-pro-usa.com/rc-parts-a...category_id=22 and it has worked GREAT on my buggy.
