I'm planning on it. All I need to do now is wiring.

HOPEFULLY my 4S lipos show up one of these years. Otherwise I'll have to run (2) 2S in series this Sunday.

Hey fellas...trying to get another GT car out there with you guys . I have a few questions. What seems to be the general tire people are using? I would like to stick with rubber tires. Additive or no? If so, what's seems to work best, jack the gripper?

Just so you guys don't laugh when I show up, I am using my Tekno converted Hot Bodies D8. Not quite made for on-road but of well...it will be fun.

My Condolences Raman. Family first, then RC.

Stripes: WE got our butt kicked by a Losi that was never run in Onroad before...by 2 laps! Maybe the offroad chassis suspension geometry might be the better way to go anyway! Hope to see you Sunday!

Lookn forward to this Sunday! Are these the right tires, PMTs? What do you recommend for compound at H. Beach, 10's or 20's? Weather is calling for sunny and 69F, my guess is soft?

Oh ya, traction compound? I just want to be prepared...

I don't have any at the moment, but I can take some. They are brand new in the package, straight from the factory in China. My company was going to sell these, but Hobbypartz decided to put me out by buying the entire stock and making their prices very low, which I can't compete with. So, prices will be the same as their website. I also have 2s 5000mah 40C which are ROAR approved.

Well now that he is ROAR Director he said he can't hang out with me.
I am going to try and drag him out there. I know we are both itch'n to run more on-road. By the way, on behalf of Jimmy, thanks to all who voted. We should see some good changes from ROAR.
