Great job Gene!
only got to run 2 batteries on Sunday as I had some personal things to do later that day. Right off the bat, buggy felt nice. Felt better balanced....Jumped nice and flat, soaked up the bumps and was fast.....Will play around with set up this coming sunday to get it more to my driving style. Just like the nitro brother, this buggy is super tough and can take a beating. Well done Intech!
I want to try your set up Gene but with Intech springs to start with.

Gene, can you do a trial fit on the FTW body on the BR6E? Id like to know if it'll clear the batteries nicely.

I don't think it will clear the batteries unless you are using a small pack.

OK, i have to find another body since I am using 6s packs. Maybe I'll just stick with the stock one.
Thanks

I ran my INTECH BR-6 E yesterday for the first time in a race. TQ'd both rounds and won the main by 2 laps!

My laps were so consistent they didn't vary by more than .3 seconds for 46 laps! That's with traffic in a racing condition! Wow!! I am amazed! I can't imagine it once I get time to work on the setup even more!

I'm very impressed with the rotation in the corners for an E buggy. I plan on racing it this weekend at a large track to see how it does there.

Yeah, it feels really balanced considering the "old school" battery layout. I prefer this over the newer narrow layouts and saddle type layouts. buggy is sweet. still playing with oils to find my sweet spot but handles really good so far.

Default INTECH BR-6E TQ's and Wins!



Well I was able to race my new INTECH BR-6E E-buggy for the 2nd time at Round #6 of the FORCE Series. I only got 1 battery of practice on the new layout but it was dialed in with my base setup. I TQ'd the first round with the only 17 lap run. In rnd 2, I went even faster and TQ'd by about 10 seconds. In the A-main, I went on to lead every lap and take the win.

This buggy is awesome and so easy to drive.

The buggy is box stock except the shock springs and alum upper shock mounts. I used the VP-Pro USA 1.4 progressive black/purple front and black/orange rears. I built the buggy box stock to see how it works without any option parts. I used the stock shock bladders with foam behind them and caps drilled. It weighs 8 pounds 10 oz with a 5600mah battery.

Now it is dialed in, I want to try all the light weight options and make it even faster.
