Well I guess the bulkheads are off my shopping list after reading Nick's posts.

Wrong again. People are calling you out on stuff you say and obviuously have no proof of these wild claims.

I was thinking about it as well. After the spokesman for that product has handled himself in such a manner, there's no way. I can wait. It's not that big of a deal to me. The car doesn't need them anyway.

Why? Because people who have never ran a pair or bought them in the first place think they're right? I think you will fine the people in america and other places will tell you how good they are over the standard design.

I run the in line bulkheads and I find them to be an improvement over the stock bulkhead/motor mount.

Yea its a little more work to get the layshaft out.. but its not a big deal.

With the motor tucked in the car balances better at 1420 grams and I havent seen any marks on my motor indicating its dragging in the sweeper like I had all last year on carpet.

I have spent more on stuff that ended up doing a lot less

Stay out of this thread. You have not helped anyone and just started a bunch of trouble.

Let's try and get back to post's that might actually help and PROMOTE a great car like the TC5, what this thread is about anyway.
Exactly.

And he's not doing his buddy any good while ripping on the Associated quality. People here are looking for solutions and improvements, not people ripping on their choice in RC.

Hey Moderators

Why do others threads and posts get deleted when they promote their products but his dont?? Clearly he is affiliated with the manufacturer and refers to the bulkheads as "ours"? This has gone on long enough.

Which is why I prefer our bulkheads, superior in strength and allow the car to flex more evenly

Thank you, finally someone with actual experience with the bulkheads. :-)

I just don't like coming on to a thread about a car that I run and am competitive with, just to see it being called a piece of crap. By of all people a guy trying to promote parts for the car.

Now you are missing the point. Your attitude is not helping to sell the product. If it is a truly a superior product it will sell it's self. Ottoman's post is a better example of how to sell a product then anything you have posted in the last few pages.

Yet again, insults. I'll bring the shovel to help dig that grave you're digging for yourself.

Keep going.
