My LHS is the importer for HB/HPI in Australia so i thought hmm... lets try....
Success! I do intend on updating to the LiPo chassis but since hearing about the new narrow chassis coming out I thought i would wait.
Also saw a few pages back a neat bit of machining.... The motor mount that moved the motor toward the center of the car! I want one... I will look back and PM the person.... If i can find it...
