thanks again Boom.

Is there a Hitech servo you think is better for the thottle that will save some coin? If its only a 10.00 difference ill just stick with 2 7955TG's and call it a day.

Still need to decide if I want to go orange or green head Alpha. and I think im going to do the 0801 pipe.

Need to get batteries, charger and starter box lined up too.

I run a 5925MG on throttle. I'm not even sure you can buy them new anymore. I think the 7965MG replaced it. But that goes to show how long these servos last. A 5625MG would be enough too.

Check out the nitro pit, really big track! Also, hobby town in tucson has a nice track, and the guys who race there are more than willing to help out. It would be worth the drive, especially if you want some serious competition or need any help. There are sections on the site for local racing scenes too.

thanks Bad. I went out to the pit last weekend and met some awesome people out there who have been very helpful. Also met a guy at FF who has been a great help too. This site rocks!
