Jason,
How's the schedule, are you ahead (please be) or are you still on 8.25?

What body do you use, have you found one body to work better for you car design over another. I race mostly carpet at competitionhobbies

Thanks,
E

I'm am probably the only one who is going to ask this, but what is with the weird gray anodized color? Car would be totally awesome if you matched the IRS shock color

the grey is the color i wanted the car to be.the nickel teflon on the shock and pivot balls is pretty cool looking but is for function only.it is a very hard,slippery coating specific for those applications.the color of the 2 together really do go well when you have it in your hands

the locator plate for the battery is nylon.there will be no problems with shorting the batteries.we took all the this into consideration when getting it ready for production.

Jason,

This might be on the thread already but too much to go though, what is the best center shock spring for running stock/19 motor? I am preparing my stock for when I get my kit so I am not out of what I need to race.

Will there be a setup in the manual for running the car on carpet? Wish there was some asphalt action around here, but I'm afraid it's either dirt or carpet around here. And I'm thinking there's not enough kick up in the front to make the doubles....

Bill.
