I bet whenever he buys a new one the shop says and what options would you be wanting with that?
Actually I saw a Pro 3 that Dave was selling a while back, nothing short of the nicest Pro 3 I've ever seen... just like the cudas he builds

If that Cuda was for sale when I bought mine, i would have bought Dave's, it would have been worth it...but that is mho. Besides, I am not a big fan of building cars...lol

If Dave's cars were for sale when we were all buying our R2's, I think every one of us would own his cars...

Hmm, Pro 4, no thanks, not after my previous HPI experiences with parts prices and avialability on occasion...

OK, I have a question for you guys, I already know the answer, it's a problem I just came across with my car but know how to fix it.
I went to clean my comm by pushing the car along whilst holding a comm stick in the motor and find the car won't move
I turn both front wheels together and there is no problem that end so I do the same to the rear, no problem. The motor will turn fine too. Put it on the ground again and it still won't move when I push it whats up if the drive train is free?

??

1st big No NO...always do motor maint. when the motor is out of the car..!!! and as far as your drive train not moving..???you have me not to clear on what your saying...but if it`s free when the motor is out then it`s more than likely the magnets or there`s some crud in your motor that needs to be cleaned out...thats all that I can think of

hehe, maybe read what I said more closely front wheels move fine together and rear wheels move fine together....

silly me installed the rear difff the wrong way round when I was reshimming it this morning wheels didn't like going in opposite directions when pushed along the ground had me scratching my head for a few minutes, then it changed to hitting my head
I guess I should pay more attention when putting it together again next time

motor was cleaned out of the car but I had a little look at it and thought the comm could be more shiney nothing wrong with a little rub with a comm stick, letting the wheels do the work, of course I don't have the motor wired up at the time.
