great product! keep up the great work.

what id love to see is a 416 plate that has "Tamiya" engraved on it. in the Tamiya style logo/font. that'd be dialed.

I did plan to do a 416 plate, but need to wait until some of the Cyclone plates get sold to keep this program self supported.

I am curious, what plate did you adapt to a 416? I haven't layed out that chassis yet, but I'm sure 1 of the previous 3 should be not too far off.

Pic would be cool.

I sure wish the people who wanted a plate for the Cyclone chassis would go ahead and place there order for the plates so we could maybe see one made for the Xray 007/008 chassis.....

yeah some pics would be tops, and the detail of which plate you used. I'm guessing the cyclone one because the cars are scarily similar, their body mounts are exactly the same too. Not sure I'd want to be seen putting my 416 on a "cyclone" marked plate though

Keep us up to date with what you're doing on the 416 ones, the Australian paso has fallen a heap since I bought my EZ lipo but that wont stop me getting one if you end up doing them

Well the setup plate sure was a success for me this weekend. Great being able to de-tweak the chassis between heats by myself without having someone hold it down. Car felt great every run because of it! Thanks again Kev!

Yea Art mentioned Voltron since I was pitting close to him and we got a good laugh about it. Kathy's car sure looked good out there too and I know it got some time on your setup plate.

Kendra...nuf said! You had everyone in attendance going good while on the mic!

There sure are.

Only sell out so far is TC5 (Mi3 is close), and I'm taking reserve orders on those.

Brian, actually I did respond but the email got rejected back to me for some reason. Here Is what I wrote.

Brian,

I'm attempting to get a min of 5 backordered to run again. I'm at 3 now.
This way I can cover setup costs and dont have to sit on inventory
since they are costly to build.

I'll put your name on the list. It will prob. be min. 2-3 weeks.
