Stevie- After Concillian's great answer all i would say is that
SMC GP 3300's are great along with many others such as Trinity GP's and Pro-Match GP's. Try a pack for practice and when they become legal race them. They keep their numbers much longer than we experienced with HV's so you will like that as well. I think you guys can get SMC's over there.

Petenis- I'm looking to come up in two weeks to practice what day is the race day and do you think Yari and Mitch will run 12th mod with me (or anyone else for the matter)? How's Dave, the racing and the drag car btw?

Switchblade- You have an excellent car and should be very competitive with it without needing an immediate upgrade. I do think the 02' edition transitions a little faster but i'm told that your edition is a little more stable with a little more rear traction. Trinity i believe makes a conversion kit for your car to the 02' version so you can contact them about that.

70mph Pan Car- I think you would be much better served by getting the JR Z3555 servo for $60. They last an incredibly long time and are very accurate. The servo you are talking about probably isn't as fast as you need even if you can make it fit and the resolution of the Z3555 may be better especially since it's ball bearing. The Z3555 may also have a coreless or at least 5pole motor, either of which is better than a 3 pole which the standard servo may be which increases resolution and speed.
