If all the parts come in, I'll be running a T-4 brushless.

Very nice looking. One suggestion loose the switch on the Monster esc before it causes any problems for ya'. There known to bounce into the off position.

Once I moved the location of my switch I have had no issues. I think some of the problem is that there isn't a good spot usually to mount the switch and its not a very long wire either. Usually its the power wires are bumping the switch and causing it to go into the off position. He may avoid this based on how his setup looks.
What tires you running on the RC8T? Looks good. Braces coming in this week. May just sell the plastic ones and the stock ones too if anyone is interested.

Hmm I wonder what ever happened to all of the other guys that said they were going to race electric 1/8th scale this winter. When we started this we had what 7 lined up. And so far we have had only 4 show up. Hmm well if the canucks get their rides done for this weekend we might just have two more.

Very nice looking body there FMLinero. Did you get the RC8 to match? Whose your painter? what are you going with for batteries in the RC8T? I bet that 6500 pack would be great in there.
I know one of the guys who was going to race 1/8 electric sold his stuff do to traveling issues. Not sure about entjoles though, he was one who was going to show too.
Its coming though. Electric 1/8 is really starting to take off.

I got the body on Ebay. I would probably run the 6500 on the truggy most of the times. Two more days!

Yeah I know times are tough for some, heck my wife got laid off a few weeks back as well. It's a bit disappointing though I was really looking forward to being able to run just the electrics in a race. But there's always next year. We'll just use this years as a base line for getting the rigs to work right.

No "s" on the end.
I was looking at those bodies too, looks like a good job on the painting, but when the one I got came up for sale, couldn't pass it up for $40 shipped.
I know in ND that there are a few guys who have expressed a lot of interest in running electric 1/8 scale. So who knows, we may see more growth through them. Main thing though is to keep showing them off at events so people can see what they are like, and if time allows, let them get in some wheel time with them too.
