Ok, so plenty. we run 7 min quals and 10 min mains. These should be perfect (although I just picked up 2 promatch 4s)

One more question. What fluid ranges are you using? Would 27.5 - 37.5wt shock oil and 2k - 10k diff oil cover it?

Our local hobby shops aren't that great and the one good one is 50 miles from my house. Needless to say I'd like to get everthing I need in one order.

Those should be fine. Prolly not going to use the 10k diff. 5k-7k tops. I'm using 27.5 and 37.5 shock oil in my buggy now, so your GTG on that.

Is TEKNO going to work with this platform for a few years or be like other companies and release new cars every couple of years? Also what is the speed control mounted on? In all the pictues I see it's just the bare chassis.

There is a tray underneath the ESC, it's just not way up high like the other cars .

The tray sits on 3 o-rings for cushioning, so it's protected very well.

This car is so well thought out that a new version won't be needed for more than 4 years!

By that time hover cars will be the ''it'' class.

Check out ProTek's 4s/4100/70C hard pack. It's light and powerful, we've been using them lately and they've been awesome.
Did you could tell me the internal resistance of lipo protek, loaded in mode storage (3.85v per cell)?
