"no aftermarket wheels/tires", do you mean "no aftermarket non-SCT wheels/tires" like 1/8 buggy wheels? Because you mention JConcepts, which are aftermarket.

If it's a direct bolt on hop up it's good PIMP it out if you want. Just no altering the physical state of the truck. Also any tire wheel combo is fine as long as they are SCT specific NO 1/8th

Is that BL motors you listed ? I need BL 13.5 type for the Castle/SW. (slash)How can you say the CC mamba is a basher motor ?

I think what he meant is that the more name brand racing motors are the wind rated motors. You won't see tebo or kinwald running KV stuff because ROAR doesn't recognize it. Castle just needs to catch up and wind rate their stuff so they are on the same page as everyone else in the norm. It's also like saying a 13.5 is the same as a 27T or 19T BS!!! I would have killed to have a 19T that was that fast back in the day. Run what ya got when you start lapping 2nd then we will talk

I'm am thinking about keeping that losi system and putting it in to a sct. Im thinking about a sc10. Since the tires that come one it are a little better than the slash's.

We now interrupt for this special news bulletin.

Kyosho has finally put up a page for the Ultima SC! And apparently are looking at a January release date. The only complaint I have is that it doesn't have the triple cap shocks That's one of my favorite parts about my buggy....

Check it out!

http://www.kyoshoamerica.com/cars/in...part_num=30855

We now return you to the usual nonsense and smack talk that is Georgia racing....

Not really. Maybe you are confusing it with that green truck from Turtletrax.
