Simply amazing stuff fella's. Im just getting started (literally), just traded a Clodbuster for an XO-1 yesterday. Its stock but unlocked, bot didnt end up getting the splitter and canards with it, so wont be making any passes til I get them! I know you guys seem to be running Mugens and Kyoshos, but Im not trying to set any records, just competing with myself lol. Planning to get a {Leopard 5682 1360KV as an upgrade starting point to run 8S passes. Any suggestions as to what ESC to run? Thanks all! Brandon

Hey thanks! In place of the XL2, since they are hard to find, what do you think about this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/VXP-Racing-3...-/171640170476
They say it will handle much more power, but they arent a "big name" company. Just curious.

Hey guys, buying some upgrade stuff in the near future for the XO, for when I get the 8S setup. What tires/wheels would you suggest for when I get it past the speed rating of factory tires? Also on a side note, which Garmin do you suggest? Thanks again! BB

You can take a look at GRP tires and I use the garmin forerunner 301

The list of mods is endless. I don't think there are any pieces of the car that I haven't somehow changed. The major ones are, all the metal and electrical components have been cryo treated, fluid filled diffs with spools and of course the belly pan. I'll answer any questions though.

What is the under chassis material?
What tires are you using,rubber or foam?
What the heck is cryo treated?
I'm sure I'll have more!?.

It's an OFNA Late Model Dirt Oval. In my opinion, it has a bunch of advantages over any other chassis. Parts are hard to get now, though.
The belly pan is 5052 aluminum sheet.
Foam tires.
Cryo treating makes things like metal gears stronger and have less friction. It makes electrical components more efficient by changing the conductivity of things like copper. This is a very simple explanation of a complex process. See Cryoheat.com

Thanks for the previous compliment, btw.

The fastest 1/8 GT I seen on 6s was a GTP2E that went 147 mph. You will most likely need at least 7s for 150+ mph. I have gone 149 mph on 7s with my Mugen MGT7.
