Not sure what you mean by endbell ?
If you dont have the Electri Clutch adapter you will need it and springs to run the Tekno clutch bell .

Getting this http://www.teknorc.com/shop/tekno-rc...apter-springs/ Do I also need to buy these if I use the clutch kit? http://www.teknorc.com/shop/tekno-rc...18t-wbearings/

I don't think we're going to make it to that one. We'll be at JBRL Nitro Rnd #3 and the SDRC Shootout race the following weekend though. The new car will be competing at both events if you want to stop by and check it out. Thanks.

Just pre-ordered mine on the Tekno site, really looking forward to it as it will be my first buggy. Thinking a MMP and a Tekin 1900kv with a Elektri-Clutch System. What size of pinion should I be looking at? This will be running in the Middle east with nice cool winters but very hot summers.

All of them

based on this info:
And using this calculator here:
http://scriptasylum.com/rc_speed/top_speed.html
If you already have a 1/8 electric you should be able to put in your current vehicle info, figure out the current estimated top speed, and then find what you need.
Me personally the tracks out here like speeds all the way up to 40mph+ .
I am thinking (assuming I go with a clutch bell setup) a Tekin 2050 motor (which on the calculator rates at 2120Kv) would give me what I need and still use clutch bells that are easy to find like from Tekno (they go up to 18T), or, my long shanks.
Now, probably doesn't matter though if you are going to use regular mod1 pinions.
Diffs are 10/40 (4:1). The spur is 44t.

thanks for the info. Right now, trying to decide which servo to keep here and if I want to try the mechanical brake thing again. I usually don't use brakes much, if at all.
Speaking of which, are we correct in assuming the new buggy will include all the hardware needed to run mechanical brakes?

I also plan on using an RX8/T8 1900 combo in this, likely with a 5000mah 4s pack, unless Tekno suggests otherwise. It should prove to be way more than enough power and allow it to run long periods and stay cool (I like to go practice for basically a day of non-stop running), even in the heat of sunny outdoor summer racing.
Blair's setup, as has already been mentioned, is a 1/10 ShortCourse Castle setup.
I'd like to know what was in the buggy that just won though, for comparison sake.

Anyone think a 1700 tekin t8 would be to much for this buggy? As I've already got that motor for another project?
