I just picked up my first Tamiya kit. Found this guy on the bay. Added HPI RS4 PRO shocks and a Castle 4600. Haven't had a chance to run it yet because I can't fit any of my lipos in it.

I've been doing some research and it looks like everybody just does what they can to mount a lipo. I've been looking for the quick release battery holder and playing with velcro and tape to no avail. The pack I have to fit in my old HPI doesn't work because they are square and the one lipo shaped like a nicad is too long, that old chestnut. If any one knows of a lipo that fits the stock holders (134mm) or of a tried and true mod i'd appreciate the info. Here are some pics. Porsche body not shown because of repairs.
