Miles starts his first kit build tomorrow, a TLR 22 buggy. Mine doesn't come in to PHC until Tuesday. We should be ready for the buggy class in a couple weeks once all the components arrive and get put together. I still have to order tires and possibly batteries. I like the thought of using shorties. We're going to try Hobbywing Xtreme ESCs and Xerun 10.5 motors. I've had great luck with their Justock ESC in other cars. I hope its not too much motor for the track though.
