These things?

i dont have a pic of my car at the moment, but setup the esc so that the solder tabs are facing the middle of the car towards the belt. position the esc front to back as close to the motor as possible while allowing for maximum travel of motor for pinion choice this will allow for just enough room to put addittional electronics in. battery pos and neg wires will go underneath top deck and in between the belt. and trust me this is the best way to mount a sphere, or any esc rather in this car, ive tried every way and combination, this will work for 4,5, or 6 cell. pm me if you have any other q's.

I keep hearing rumors of a new car coming out of the Hot Bodies camp. Anybody have any information on this? I am considering the Moorespeed car, but do not want to get it and have a new car release a month later.
