Yes sir. I ground the topdeck a small amount just where the wires touch. Basically just to round the corners so if its jarred around in one of my horrendous wrecks it wont cut the wire. Other than that it fits right into one of the newer metal trays and into the car without any mods.

Larry, so you are doing IIC this year? I assume you are draggin Schreff with you. It was not the same not having you guys there last year.

That's sound advice Larry,
We don't want your new nick name to be Mr.BlowUP!
You going to the Reedy Race?

What would be a good starting point pinion/spur for a 17.5 BL Orion vortex. I've got a 128 spur in the car but i'm open to any other combo of spur/pinion, thanks. Oh, i'm running asphalt with rubber tires.

You want a FDR around 3.5. 128/67 would give you a 3.5 FDR. What ESC are you running?

Tekin RS, not the pro.

I also run the tekin rs. I would start with 108/52. I run 0 timing on the motor and full boost on the esc.

Wait, newer...metal...trays?
I've been under a rock for quite a while now, what's the difference between the "newer" ones and the "older" ones? What is the part number?

On that note...
Who would be interesed in a chassis conversion kit to better balance this chassis f/r? It is an idea being looked at to eliminate the spread of weight from one end of the chassis to the other and focus it in the middle. In theroy you will have more rotation speed (faster steering) with the same setup and electronics positioned better (not right up front with long wires running to the motor). Anyway its a work in progress at the moment.

There is no part number difference. There was a running change in the trays that fixed some fitment issues in the car and some batteries. It was mainly just changing the size of the pocket in the tray to just a tick bigger and double checking tolerances on it fitting the car.

Jason, are you and Larry doing IIC this year?

I don't know why you guys use a metal tray unless you have very light lipos. Almost all the weight on my chassis is over the front to get it nicely balanced.

Dragonfire Im already working on it and promise you will get your hands on the fist working prototype to test.
Also for those of you interested in the layshaft we have been working on, we started production on the first batch today. I will post pics and maybe a video of the CNC turning. Been a long time coming but when you are making small runs on very expensive machinery, patience is sometimes needed.
