I have a Tekin RS for $80 shipped. King of smack, if I didn't know any better I'd swear you are a clone. I'm I right or wrong on that?

A clone? What do you mean by that? And the Tekin isn't legal

Oh, I just got it. Jim Rome. I like him but I used to do some local sports radio stuff and the boss gave me that name.

the Reventon stock Club race can be had for about $45 shipped new. Not sure if that is what you are wanting brand wise, but just putting that out there.

Jim Rome is the reason. I listened to him since '95 til the end of '12. Now that he is online. I just find it an inconvenience to listen to.

Why wouldn't a Tekin RS be legal? In "blinky" it offers zero timing/disadvantage. Am I missing something? If so please educate me because I wasn't aware that a Tekin RS would be illegal for VTA. Thanks, Paco.

USVTA is a lot more strict on ESC limitations, and only allows one brand of motor, though in 3 different configurations it appears with the latest being a BOSS edition. They also limit battery to 5000mah max capacity.

Personally, prefer ROAR rules but I see there point on things.
