The 10R will be getting some changes now that the testing/performance area is complete. The car will fit lipo with no problems but i am working on fitting a different lipo than the standard stick style because i really feel they are going to fade away now that lipo is legal. Car designs are going to change and i want to be 1 step ahead. I want the car to perform to the best of its ability and the standard stick style lipo pack isnt the route i want to take. I will post the final pics shortly for you all to see. Nerf wings will be incorperated into the cross brace similar to the 12R.

Sounds interesting

As long as my TrakPower fits, and works well, Id dont care what else its made for lol...... My hopes for actually having a pro10 class are slim.......

Any price set?

Hey Jason, thanks for all the help this week! I have gotta check the car out to see what happened, but it ran great in every practice round, and every qualifier, then had a huge tweak in the main, I'm puzzled as to what happened...

Randy,

Yeah, that was a strange thing. We need to take a look at the front end to see what happened. You ran awesome though bro. Im glad you got to enjoy the puke down by the pizza hut.


Kropy,

Not a problem bro. Thanks for the great looking paint jobs as usual. Sorry i beat them up. The dizzyness really got to me. I wasnt feeling very well the whole week and my driving wasnt up to snuff to say the least


It was nice to get to meet all you guys for once. I had a great time despite the dizzy head. I look forward to the up and coming races. Considering we only had 3 full factory guys running, 2 made the show in there class and 1 took second. Great showing from everyone.

Default revised parts

Jason or Adrian,

Do you have a list compiled of parts that have been 'revised' since the first run of cars came out, i.e. battery locator, etc.

Thanks,
E

The only updated parts since the car was released was the lower pod and battery locator.

super high bite, not extremely technical. cars were looping on day 1 of practice and were getting tacky that same afternoon

Thanks, I thought that maybe I had missed more than that. Although I haven't used the battery locator since my fisrt meeting with the boards

What's reviesd with the lower pod plate? Was/ is there a possible breakage issue?
