Nah....I took both heats, but all I could do is give him good chase in the main! Congrats to Jai! It was fun while it lasted. Now it's time to launch and get some extreme air! Road Rally style!

Jerry was the fastest guy out there this time out. I may have got the W, but I know next month it will be much harder. SNR will be there and hopefully Jerry's thermaling issues are resolved. Omar has gotten faster as well.

Ok guys... How is the Mamba in drivability? How smooth is it? Thinking about buying the Mamba Monster 2600 combo. Another piece that I am looking at is the SpeedPassion 2200 combo.

Ok wound up with a Castle 2650 system. What should I be gearing my GTP2e at?

Also, will a BLS551 servo be enough for steering?

I can't seem to find any info on the BLS551. Hmmm. You do know that your Castle 2650 system is rated for 4S (as per Castle)....right? Just in case you were thinking of dropping a 6S.

Yes, picked up a Trakpower 4s 60C 5600 pack.

Wound up ordering a Futaba BLS451 servo... 150oz at .1 speed

In Australia, its very difficult to find info, wheels n tyres, and bodies, let alone someone to race with, or some where. we dont take it too seriously, and illd rather my car look good, than be all out and out quick. although no-ones saying a Vorza on 6s Nanotechs is slow.. lols. so thats 10 posts ill have a go at putting up pics. cheers.

What's the best Hobbywing combo for my 1/8 Onroad car, an Ofna GTP2E. I plan on racing with 4S.

Also what's the best place to get it online? I'm in Canada.

I already use Tekin in my other cars and I'm aware of how great they are, but this car will not see as much use as my offroad vehicles so I'm not interested in adding a 3rd RX8 combo to my collection. Others around here have had good luck with the HW combos so I figured I'd try one.
