I was confused too, In comparison to the Yokomo YRX10, I was referring to the Diggity and Darkside cars with the batteries in the center.

The BMI DB12R uses dual L bars, which is not the same as the Yokomo YRX10. And it's batteries are very far rearward. Which to me, = traction!

Thanks OD - These guys on this forum are brutal :)

It happened due to a little "Metro" friend of yours :lol: :lol:

Hey is more your friend than mine if he got you the hook up. Right now I just want to race and the other thing I told Picco007. If you talked to him lately. So don't get upset with me cause I am running a wacked out setup. I am trying to cut back on expenses. Even buying the right tires to run.

As you know, my motor sponsor went out of business. Due to my results at the Texas St Champs, Mike Dumas contacted me and offered a deal.

Went to Picco007's mansion on Sat to watch the Spurs lose. Not sure if he is racing this weekend, but I will be there.

I'm not saying it's not a good car, I just haven't seen one in real life. Would someone like to chime in. On a super high bite surface it might be quite good."

I wasn't talking smack about the car, I was just my honest opinion. Since I've had experience with the Yokomo car I was just answering ttso's question and tring to help out. I did ask for some real hands-on experience to chime in on the DB12R's performance.

Sorry if I offended anyone :)

no offense taken bro.i didnt mean it to come off that way.i wanted to stress the fact of the far rearward battery position because that was one of the biggest things i was proud of.all the link style cars have the batteries very far forward due to the whole link setup.i have always ran my batts slammed to the back on my T bar car and made it a point not to change that with the new design.the car does work extremely well on low bite dusty tracks.i feel that the thinner flex plates are more suitable because it removes some of the steering and makes it easier to drive but when i tested i used the thicker ones and adjusted the car with them.end result was an aggressive car that was fast but may be hard for some to drive.for this reason i am going to have the 2 thicknesses available. :cool:
