mine is the 2010 specs so no need for the Ti buckles, much cheaper if you are on a tight budget....

If anything its sounds undergeared. Cush's buggy has a 7.5 in it running 23-24/87 with a bit of boost. Different motor/esc (Tresrey/SP), but I would think you need a few more teeth on there. I've also been told that the Viper motors are about a wind off of other brands- their 8.5 is more comparable to a 9.5 from other manufacturers. With that in mind, it would suggest you are significantly undergeared.
FWIW, his motors temp between 140-150 after a 6min race on a 125x65 indoor track.

Dose 24-25/87 for the tresrey 8.5 on a 40x20 track sound about right or should it be higher or lower

[QUOTE=jmackani;10445511]I have been watching the U.S. Distributor (HRP) inventory quite a bit. Here is what I have seen. Team Durango's website appears to be an inventory of what is available from the factory. HRP's inventory is what is on the ground in the U.S.. Based off Team-Durango's factory inventory, the only car available is the nitro buggy. The only car available from HRP is a lonely one DEX410R- older version. Some parts never seem to make it to the U.S. like the aluminum wheel hexes. So, I am speculating either two things are going on. One, some ship in the middle of the ocean, has lots of toys and parts on it. Or two, there is legal battle going on with Hobbico and HRP.
Does your hobby shop have anything Durango available parts or vehicles? The reason I ask is because for most LHS, it was not a cheap buy-in process nor was it standard from what I have seen. Hint, you may have to call "bullsh!t" on the hobby shop owner. In addition, not to slam you, but never pay ahead next time. Get your money back and buy the R-Version from here
It's a shame Team-Durango is not more forthcoming about their supply issues. As such I would not buy one. I was going to, but it's obvious that doing so is buying into an unreliable supply chain. Instead I'm going to wait around a bit to see if Losi comes out with one or even go for an xfactory. The associated is not a bad buy if you want something now. It's a good car with good parts availability.

It's a Mamba 1s. I really like it because it can handle up to 6s (that's what I run my durango on), is relatively light (because it has no BEC), and cheap. The blue thing stuck to is a Castle programmable BEC that can take up to 6s in, and let's me run 8v to the servo. ;-)

I think that TD are doing well now or at least better there was a post earlier about china closing for the new year for a month and a lot of parts backed up cos people didn't just stop driving under that time.
TD estimated that it would take a couple of months to get on top of things.
