Looks electric alright, no fumes
You guys have an awesome track layout and im rather envious, about your track surface, is that on a loamy (unlikely but close to) type surface or just well watered down?
Damn that track is good

Actually the surface was hard packed top soil that held moisture real good. more tracks need to keep the top soil on the track and not scrap it off. Part the track still had grass on areas out of the groove.
Great track with a very interesting crossover section.

turtletrax- I use a piece of brass stock (thickest one I could get) and cut it to size. I then bent it to fit the 8000 Thunder Power Li-Po, drilled a hole for the body clip and then I cut a hole in the back of the battery box and marked the brass bar. I then drilled a hole in back part the brass bar and put a screw through it so it can not fall out. I have a MF1.5 (same chassis as a MF2). If you use a 6000 I believe it will fit with no mods as it is about the same height as a 4200 Nimh pack. Here are a few pics. Hope this helps.

Some the racers using Losi Trucks have used the plastic battery bar heating it at 2 points bending it too shape over the battery too.

Hey Doug,
I'm the one that bought your MF1 on Ebay in May. This is kind of off topic but you refer to your losi as an MF1.5 because you're running an MF2 chassis... I thought the chassis were the same between the two. Is there a difference and if so, what's the benefit?
